[October 10, 2014]  LINCOLN - Lincoln College will host their 5th Annual Men’s Basketball Jamboree on Sunday, Oct. 12.

Two dozen teams from Illinois and Iowa will play all day in the Nutt Arena and Davidson-Sheffer Gymnasium (DSG) on the Lincoln College campus and in both gymnasiums at Lincoln Community High School. The first games begin at 9 a.m. and the last games begin at 5 p.m. The Lincoln College Lynx will play Carl Sandburg at 10 a.m. in the Nutt Arena, Plant Athlete Prep at noon in the DSG, and Wabash Valley College at 5 p.m. in the DSG. All-day admission is $5 for adults and $3 for students.

“This is a really great event, and it’s grown exponentially. We had 17 teams last year and this year we’re up to 24. It’s a great opportunity for the teams to get some pre-season play, and for Lincoln basketball fans to get to watch a lot of different teams,” said Lynx Head Coach Pat Lepper.
