The award, which recognizes athletic achievement as well as the academic performance and overall character of its recipient, distinguishes Jeff as the nation’s best high school football player. The Gatorade National Advisory Board, a group of sportswriters and sport-specific experts from around the country, selected Jeff from the more than one million high school football players nationwide.

Defensively, he recorded 203 tackles in his senior season, 97 of them solo and 55 of them for a loss. In addition, he racked up 10 sacks and forced 14 fumbles, one of which he returned 75 yards for a touchdown in Loveland’s 50-0 state semifinal victory. Jeff capped off his high school career by leading Loveland High School to the Colorado 4A state championship, the school’s sixth overall and its second during his four years on the varsity. “Jeff is the rare individual who can absolutely dominate the game as a lineman.
