Led UTPB with three four-hit games this season, was third on the team with 18 multi-hit games, and had 13 games with a least two runs scored and seven games with at least two RBI's... Recorded UTPB's first hit of the season with a one-out triple to right field in the bottom of the second inning vs. No. 12 Angelo State University, and finished 2-for-3 with a home run and a triple in his collegiate debut. Jefcoats then delivered a two-run single to center field with two outs in the fifth inning as UTPB earned its first win of the 2026 season with a 2-0 shutout victory over the Rams, giving him a game-winning hit to wrap up opening weekend to go along with the home run during his debut... Then in the next series at Texas A&M International University, Jefcoats smashed a pair of two-out home runs in the fifth inning (two-run home run) and the seventh inning (solo home run), giving him three home runs in the first six games of the season...

Was 3-for-4 with four runs scored, two stolen bases and a walk in the series opener vs. Cameron University, and scored eight runs in the first three games vs. the Aggies... Led off the bottom of the seventh inning with a hit by pitch and scored the winning run in UTPB's walk-off win in game one vs. Sul Ross State University. He would go on to hit .571 (8-14) against the Lobos and led the team in hits, runs (8), steals (5), on-base percentage (.667) and slugging percentage (.857) for the series while also hitting his team-leading sixth home run of the season...

Both Jefcoats' home run and RBI totals were a new UTPB record for a single game... Then in the final series of the season at Lubbock Christian University, Jefcoats delivered the biggest hit of the game with a two-run double down the left field line to put the Falcons in front 7-6 in the fifth inning. Jefcoats would go on to start the final game of his freshman season 4-for-4 and finished the contest 4-for-6.
