Team Jacobs has announced on their Facebook page that they will no longer have the same lineup after this season.

According to the Facebook post, Brad Jacobs, Ryan Harnden, and E.J Harnden will continue to play together and search for a fourth player. Meanwhile, Ryan Fry will be 'exploring alternative options' for next season.

Fry recently rejoined the team after taking time off for personal reasons.

The post reads, "... After seven amazing years together, which resulted in a Brier win, an Olympic Gold Medal, multiple Grand Slam titles and being one of the best teams in our sport for many years we feel as though it is time to try something different – A fresh start."

This announcement trails the 2019 Tim Hortons Brier, which saw Team Jacobs (Team Northern Ontario) knocked from the semifinals by Brendan Bottcher's Team Wild Card. 

Team Jacobs will play the last two events of the season with the current lineup.
