“Jacy is one of the most talented players we’ve ever had in our program and she hasn’t yet maxed out the enormous potential she possesses. Her combination of raw athleticism, technical ability and vision to read the game make her an absolute threat every time she steps on the field. Each team we faced focused on marking her out of the game and she constantly faced double- and triple-teams throughout the season. But she still managed to shatter the single-season scoring record at the school. For any player to have the impact that Jacy had is impressive, but to do it as a freshman makes it even more so.”
Chris Graham
Head Coach head coach at Olathe Northwest

Athletic Excellence


The 5-foot-8 freshman forward led the Ravens (15-4) to the Class 6A quarterfinals this past season. Hackler scored 25 goals and passed for seven assists, finding the back of the net in 15 of her team’s 19 games. Ranked as the nation’s No. 135 recruit by TopDrawerSoccer—No. 6 in the Heartland Region—and No. 3 among PrepSoccer’s Best KS/MO forwards, she was a United Soccer Coaches All-Region selection. Hackler owns her school’s single-season goals record and scored the US Youth Soccer Association’s National Goal of the Year in 2023. A USSF Youth National Team Talent Identification Camp invitee, she’s also a member of Olathe Northwest’s 2024 KSHSAA Girls Track & Field 6A state championship team, clocking a school-record time of 25.53 in the 200-meter dash this spring.

Academic Achievement


Hackler has maintained a 4.14 weighted GPA in the classroom. She will begin her sophomore year of high school this fall. 

Exemplary Character


Hackler has volunteered locally assembling bags of food for both the homeless and for families who qualify for free or reduced-fee lunches at school. She has also donated her time with youth camps through both Legends and through KC Athletics, and she’s also participated in the Best Buddies program, supporting students with intellectual and physical challenges.
