"What a great start to the state series," said Ed Jodlowski, one
of the Lincoln coaches. He said the students have worked "tirelessly
day after day since August, and their success is truly a testament
to their work ethic."
"We feel we have a real great opportunity hosting the sectional
this coming weekend, and students just need to finish among the top
three next weekend to qualify for the state tournament."
Lincoln hosts schools from the Belleville West and Benton
regionals at the Lincoln Sectional.
The team has also rescheduled the "Meet the Regional Team" --
which is now the sectional team -- to Thursday night at 6:30.
Everyone is invited to come out and see this talented group of young
people show off their speaking talents.
