Jasniewicz scored the go-ahead goal as Troy defeated reigning Division 1 champion Rochester Adams 2-1 on April 3, not only giving the Colts an early advantage in the Oakland Activities Association Red race, but also avenging Troy's overtime loss to Adams in last season's Regional Final. Jasniewicz sent home an Ava Fleming pass with 16:27 to play to put their team ahead for good.

A forward and midfielder, Jasniewicz made the Division 1 all-state first team last season as Troy finished 14-2-3 and won the OAA Red title. The Colts are 4-0-1 this season and No. 3 in Division 1 in this week's first rankings of the season, just ahead of Adams at No. 4. Jasniewicz moved to Troy from Canada a few years ago and played volleyball and basketball for Troy earlier this school year after growing up also competing in cross country, swimming and track.

Performance of the Week: West Bloomfield's Elizabeth Eichbrecht

November 28, 2025

Senior ♦ Swimming

Eichbrecht finished her high school career last week by completing career Finals sweeps in the 200 and 500-yard freestyles at the Lower Peninsula Division 1 championship meet at Oakland University. She set all-Finals records in both races, swimming a 1:45.05 in her 200 prelim to break the 2007 record set by past Canton star and later Olympic medalist Allison Schmitt. Her 500 prelim time of 4:42.00 broke the 2017 record set by Grand Ledge's Lola Mull.

Eichbrecht went on to swim 1:45.98 in the 200 and 4:42.89 in her championship races to win them by more than 5 and 16 seconds, respectively. She had entered the meet with seed times of 1:45.48 and 4:41.54. She improved on her Finals times from a year ago by three seconds in the 200 and nearly 10 in the 500. Eichbrecht will continue at Indiana, which is coming off a record fourth-place finish at last season's NCAA championship meet.
