Brad Jacobs is in good position as he prepares to wrap up round robin action on Saturday at the Shorty Jenkins Classic in Cornwall, Ont.

The Jacobs rink, which included third Marc Kennedy, second E.J. Harnden, and lead Ryan Harnden improved to 4-0 at the tournament thanks to a pair of wins on Friday.

The Jacobs rink opened the day with a win over Jean-Sebastien Roy in the morning draw before picking up a 6-3 win over John Epping of Toronto later in the day.

Against Epping, a team that includes former Team Jacobs member Ryan Fry, the two teams traded singles through the opening four ends before Jacobs took a 4-2 lead thanks to a pair in the fifth end.

After Epping scored one in the sixth end, Jacobs sealed the win with a pair in the seventh end.

The Jacobs rink is set to wrap up round robin action on Saturday afternoon against Michael Fournier of Quebec at 4:15 p.m.
