CAPE COD MA – A Newburgh man, who was a 2012 graduate of Monroe-Woodbury High School, drowned in Cape Code on Saturday.
Jack Jakubeck, 22, who was called star swimmer, was trying out at Pilgrim Lake for a summer lifeguard position, a job he held last summer.
During a tryout on Saturday morning, he disappeared in the lake about 200 feet from shore and was located a half hour later. He was pronounced dead at a local hospital.
An investigation is being conducted into the death of a young man, who was the captain of his men’s swim team while attending SUNY Cortland.
