The Umpqua RiverHawk Obstacle Course Racing program is proud to announce the addition of Isaac Jacobsen, of Winston, Oregon. Jacobsen is a Geneva Academy graduate, where he participated in cross country. Jacobsen is new to OCR but is an avid rock climber.

Jacobsen will be joining fellow Geneva Academy graduates William Turner and Andrew Paschall, as part of the inaugural OCR Team. The Umpqua Obstacle Course Racing Team is the first of its kind in the country, and will begin racing in the fall of 2017.
