LC Basketball:  Lady Lynx move to 14-1

[January 18, 2018] 

The Lincoln College Women’s Basketball team resumed their season last night with a dominating performance at home against Robert Morris (Springfield). The Lady Lynx offense could not be stopped as they rolled to a 100-30 win.

Five players scored in double figures for LC including 25 from freshman guard Allysah Boothe (Chicago) and 16 each from Indianapolis, IN natives Erynn Young and Emoni Smith. Double-doubles were recorded by Nautica Preston (10 points, 11 assists) of Chicago and and Cahokia High School grad Whitney Gines (14 points, 13 rebounds). Kaleia Monteiro (Rockford) pulled down a team-high 17 rebounds.

LC Coach Matt Vavro said of his team’s performance: “I thought we were very unselfish and passed the ball well as we finished with 28 assists. We played hard and in our style of basketball, which is a positive heading into conference season.”

Lincoln (14-1) will travel to Galesburg on Saturday to take on the Carl Sandburg Chargers at 2:00 p.m.
