Head Coach Oliver Germond
on how dominant of a player Jenna has been in her 2 season at FCC
“Jenna is amazing, she is a goal scorer and also very unselfish in many ways to help set up her teammates.
She makes a big difference on our team because she is so calm on the ball and teams struggle to mark her because of her size (6’1) and her speed.
In the playoffs she was covered well so the rest of the team needed to step up. That’s what happened vs Taft in our last regular match.
They double teamed her every time she received the ball but we were able to still score 5 goals” saod Germond.
Thomason has been playing soccer since kindergarten and much of her inspiration for the sport has been her three older brothers.
“They have always watched out for me and expect a lot,” said Thomason.
Before a game the star player listens to “Pocket Full of Sunshine” to get pumped up, which fits the spunky athlete’s personality perfectly.
You can’t help but smile and feel good about yourself after talking to her.
“During the season I really try to keep it on the healthy side,” said Thomason.
“Every night before game day Coach will make chicken and rigatoni pasta with salad which I love.” said Thomason
When she’s not playing soccer or studying for school you can find Thomason hanging out with friends or hunting.
She also loves country music and would score one hundred goals if Luke Bryan ever came to one of her games.
