She has ample natural physical ability, as evident by her participation on the UW Track & Field team, and has been working to raise her mental level of confidence in her golf game to that same level. She participated in three of the seven spring events for the Pokes and shot a low 80(+8) at the Wyoming Cowgirl Classic in Chandler, Ariz.

2006-07 (Freshman): Jeffries used her redshirt season to improve the mechanics of her swing. She walked onto the Wyoming track and field team and was UW's best high jumper, with top-five UW all-time marks during both the indoor and outdoor seasons.

Johnna was selected to play in the North-South All-Star Tournament during the summer of 2004 and 2005. An honors student, Jeffries was ranked number one in her high school class and has earned numerous academic awards. Her high school golf coach was Kevin Bartlett.
