[March 01, 2021]  The Charleston Trojans came to town Friday night and held Lincoln to a close ballgame for three quarters until the Railers finally put the game away in the final quarter and took the 43-34 win.

Adam Grunder got the Railers in the scoring column with a long three good for the 3-1 early lead. Too many missed shots in the first quarter saw the Railers down 9-7 when the quarter came to a close.

Eight points from Singleton in the second quarter kept the game close and the Railers would take a 19-18 halftime lead over Charleston.

The Railers extended the lead in the third quarter after Singleton went 6-for-6 from the free throw line and Elijah Pollice added five points to the scoring column. Going into the final eight minutes, the Railers were on top 30-27.

In the fourth quarter Singleton poured in nine points to lead the Railers. Throw in a big three from Pollice and the Railers pick up a 43-34 win over Charleston.

Dylan Singleton continues to impress. Singleton scored 25 points and pulled down 9 rebounds for Lincoln.

Lincoln improves to 8-2 on the season.

Lincoln won the JV game 50-19 over Charleston. Payton Cook led Lincoln with 12 points. Trey Schilling had 11 points for the Railers.

Lincoln will play today at Mahomet-Seymour. The JV game will start at 3 p.m. The Varsity game will start at 4:30 p.m.
