Devin Jacobs, a freshman at Sartell High School, recently broke the school record for most points scored in a season by a freshman on Saturday January 27, 2024.
Jacobs has tallied 7 goals and 17 assists for a total of 24 points through the first 19 games of the season. The record was previously set by Tory Lund during the 2019-2020 season where he posted 13 goals and 10 assists for a total of 23 points.
On Tuesday January 23, 2024 the Sabres fell to Fergus Falls by a score of 4-1.

With this assist, Jacobs recorded his 23rd point of the season, tying the school record.
Jacobs would later go on to break the record in the Sabres matchup against the Bemidji Lumberjacks. It only took 14 minutes and 27 seconds into the first period for Jacobs to get an assist on a powerplay goal scored by senior forward, Tony Colatrella, to give the Sabres a 1-0 lead. The Sabres went on to win this game in overtime by a score of 2-1 and add a win to their record which currently sits at 13-5-1.
