Jefferson moved up two spots to No. 5 in this week's Class 5A softball poll released Friday by the Iowa Girls High School Athletic Union.

The J-Hawks (14-1) are riding a 13-game winning streak, but face on of their toughest assignments of the season in a home game against Des Moines East (12-0) in the Jefferson Classic. The J-Hawks' only loss so far was to No. 3 Iowa City West (17-1) in the nightcap of their season-opening doubleheader last month.

Jefferson, West and No. 10 Dubuque Senior (18-0) are the only Mississippi Valley Conference teams in the polls.

Clear Creek Amana (15-0) is ranked No. 1 in Class 4A and Solon (12-0) is No. 1 in Class 3A. Solon plays Des Moines East at 4:45 p.m. in the Jefferson Classic on Friday.
