As FLN continues to grow, we are making an effort to follow our boys and girls at the next level.  The success stories are many and we look forward to showing high profile successes like Robert’s and others as well.  As you know, last year we had several national champions crowned, some who played a lot and some who did not.  In addition, we have sons and daughters who are getting great educations, continuing what they love and building relationships for the future.  We can’t follow them all ourselves, so please send us stories of which you might be aware. Meanwhile, congratulations to Robert!  He’s off to an enviable start. Kenyon College Athletics – Jacobs wins first weekly NCAC lacrosse award
CLEVELAND, Ohio – After helping lead the Kenyon College Lords to a pair of wins to start the 2015 season, sophomore Robert Jacobs was named the North Coast Athletic Conference men’s lacrosse Player of the Week on Monday.Jacobs, a Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, native was an absolute force on the offensive end. In two games he totaled 11 goals, seven of which came in Kenyon’s 16-5 thrashing of Hope this past Saturday. He also assisted on the defensive end coming up with combined two-game totals of nine groundballs and two caused turnovers.Jacobs’ output of 11 goals in those two games came on just 17 shots, giving him a .647 shooting percentage.
