the next set but eventually fell 24-26. In set three the Lady Lynx
found their rhythm and never trailed on their way to a 25-16 win.
The fourth set saw Lincoln jump out to an early lead, but they were
unable to sustain the momentum and lost the set 20-25.

Coach Mark Tippett commented: "I was proud of the effort we
brought to the match tonight. We played very hard on defense,
and our offense continued to improve. We lost to Sandburg in
three sets the first week of the season and the scores were not
close. Tonight was a much different story as we were able to
compete with them in each set and had our chances to win the
match. Serving errors cost us set two, which is frustrating, but
the good news is that our team has improved our overall play to
the point that we could be competitive against an opponent that
just a month ago we lost to in straight sets."
Lincoln is now 11-14 on the season.
Lincoln plays at Southwestern Illinois College on Thursday.
