Jacobs, a sophomore from Orange, Va., led the Yellow Jackets to a pair of wins, including a league victory over Virginia Wesleyan to remain undefeated against conference opponents.  Jacobs posted an assist and scored the game-winning goal in R-MC's 4-3 non-conference win over Frostburg State on Thursday.  She followed that up by scoring the first goal of the game and assisting on Rachel Gardner's game-winner in double-overtime for a 2-1 Jackets' triumph.  Jacobs is currently fourth in the ODAC in both goals (9) and points (22), while her two game-winning goals are tied for second in the league.
