Jacob is a hardworking and competitive two way midfielder who brings elite speed, precise stick skills, and a high lacrosse IQ to both ends of the field. She may be smaller in size, but she is incredibly tough and plays much bigger than her frame.

Offensively, she uses her quick changes of direction and twitchy dodging style to create scoring opportunities for herself and set up her teammates. Defensively, Jacob is phenomenal. Her agility, body positioning, and explosive reactions allow her to disrupt offenses.
