A graduate at the University of Calgary in Canada, Jacobs trained for the university's wrestling team under his head coach Leigh Vierling.[2] Jacobs qualified for the Namibian squad, as the nation's first and lone wrestler, in the men's heavyweight class (96 kg) at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, with a remarkable milestone. Earlier in the process, he placed sixth in the 97-kg division at the 2003 World Wrestling Championships in New York City, New York, United States, which automatically secured him a spot for his Olympic debut.[3][4] He lost two straight matches each to Kazakhstan's Islam Bairamukov with a 1–7 decision, and Azerbaijan's Rustam Aghayev, who pinned him into the mat by both an eleven-point advantage and a technical fall, in the prelim pool, finishing eighteenth overall in the final rankings.[5] References1. ^{{cite sports-reference|Nico Jacobs|https://www.sports-reference.com/olympics/athletes/ja/nico-jacobs-1.html|8 June 2014}} 2. ^{{cite news|last=Kotarski |first=Kris |title=U of C goes to the Olympics |url=https://www.ucalgary.ca/oncampus/weekly/july23-04/olympics.html |publisher=University of Calgary |date=23 July 2004 |accessdate=8 June 2014 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20090524030621/http://ucalgary.ca/oncampus/weekly/july23-04/olympics.html |archivedate=24 May 2009 |df= }} 3. ^{{cite news|last=Abbott|first=Gary|title=Olympic Games preview at 96 kg/211.5 lbs. in men's freestyle|url=http://www.themat.com/section.php?section_id=3&page=showarticle&ArticleID=10340|work=USA Wrestling|publisher=The Mat|date=18 July 2004|accessdate=29 September 2013}} 4. ^{{cite news|last=Ihuhua|first=Corry|title=Mutorwa not happy with few athletes to Olympics|url=http://www.namibian.com.na/indexx.php?archive_id=6527&page_type=archive_story_detail&page=5571|publisher=The Namibian|date=24 June 2004|accessdate=8 June 2014}} 5. ^{{cite web|title=Wrestling: Men's Freestyle 96kg|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/olympics_2004/wrestling/results/3532658.stm|work=Athens 2004|publisher=BBC Sport|date=15 August 2004|accessdate=30 September 2013}} External links
