The teams traded wins, with Lewis and
Clark taking the first game 36-34. Lincoln College came back to win
the second game 30-27, only to have Lewis and Clark win the third
game 34-32. Lincoln College then forced the fifth game with a 30-23
win in the fourth game. Lewis and Clark won the finale 16-14.
"It was an extremely entertaining
match, as it went back and forth all night," said Lincoln coach Mark
Tippett. "Neither team could get any run going, as the two teams
were very evenly matched. We made a few more minor mistakes than
they did, and that was the difference. We played very solid, and
even though we lost the match, we feel good about our intensity."
