“I will forever be grateful for my time as head coach the past 12 years at Bartram Trail. Bartram Trail is truly a special place. This program has been my second family and a huge passion of mine. I have been honored to have coached so many amazing young women over the years,” Jackowiak said.
“Every team I have coached has played the game with honor and dignity. To have won three state titles is surreal. This program will forever be apart of me, but it’s time for me to be home more and focus on my No. 1 job title: mom. I’m excited to watch the Bears continue to have success as they return a strong 2024 squad. I will always be a fan and supporter! Thank you Bartram Trail, it’s been quite the ride.
No local team had won back-to-back championships until Bartram did. The Bears also won a title in 2016 and played for another. Only Bolles boys coach Tom West, who won a championship when he was at Ponte Vedra, has led a local program to the state final. West took Bolles to the 1A championship game this year.
