About Jacob

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

I play physical and with a lot of effort. I try to stay disciplined and make sure I’m locked in every play.

Can you provide a brief description of your mentality or personality?

I’m competitive but also coachable. I want to win but I also care about helping my team get better.

Are you involved in any clubs, organizations, or have you received any non-sport awards?

Hawaii Tiki Bowl, O-D Bowl, MRD Foundation Bowl.

What skills or qualities have you developed, such as leadership, teamwork, or community service?

Football has taught me leadership, teamwork, and discipline. I know how to work hard and stay committed.

Have you faced any significant challenges? If so, please describe.

I’ve had to battle through injuries, but I’ve learned how to bounce back and keep pushing. Junior year I sprained my AC joint and lost my whole season.

What type of college are you looking for?

I’m looking for a school with a decent sized student body where I can play football and continue my education.

Mendel is a guy who did not see much varsity action as a sophomore but has some upside with a frame to add some more size.
