Jewsbury scored a state record 59 goals in his senior season and 124 goals in his four-year high school career at Kickapoo High School in Springfield, MO. He was named First-team All-Midwest Region, All-State, All-District, All-Ozark Conference and conference Player of the Year as a senior. Jewsbury was a three-time All-District and All-State selection, and had his #21 jersey retired.
Jewsbury played four years of college soccer at Saint Louis University, finishing his career tied for tenth on the school's all-time scoring list with 101 points. Jewsbury was twice named first team All-Conference USA, winning the Conference Player of the Year award as a sophomore.
