Bri Jaeger went from playing a combined 18 minutes in her first two years to over 800 this year.

Entering this season, longtime head coach Markus Roeders needed to find the next Carrie Madden.

Madden went from only appearing in 15 minutes of action her first two years on campus to leading the team in almost every statistical category her redshirt sophomore year.

“This time last year, nobody would’ve really talked about Carrie Madden,” Roeders said in August. “And see what Carrie Madden has done for us this past year.”

With BIG EAST play coming up in under a week, Roeders appears to have found an answer: redshirt sophomore center back Bri Jaeger.
