MILWAUKEE, Wis. – West Fork junior Jacob Hansen competed in the USA Olympic Individual Triathlon 2015 Age Group National Championships, finishing in the top 40 for his age group.

Hansen, who has finished in the top-10 at the state cross country meet the previous two seasons, finished 867th out of 2,609 total competitors, 721st out of 1,428 males and was 39th in the male age 16-19 on Saturday, Aug. 8.

“I guess, it was a pretty good experience to compete at a national level like that,” Hansen said. “I get used to the experience and it helps with the upcoming cross country season.”
