The host Crusaders got on the board first when Adam Forestier hit the
first of his three goals midway through the first half. Lincoln
responded with a goal by William Armbruster, which put the game
level at halftime.
In the second half, Forestier struck again, only to have the
Railers pull level on a goal by Grant Cooper, assisted by Brock
Bunner. But that would be the end of the Railers' scoring, and the
Crusaders tallied two goals in the final 15 minutes to win 4-2.
"We just have to play with more tenacity," Railer coach Tim
Stuckey said. "It was not a good effort from our guys. We were not
strong to the ball and not aggressive, and it's hard to win if
that's the way you play."

After playing seven of their first nine games on the road,
the Railers are looking forward to a four-game homestand over
the next two weeks.
"Our guys play better at home," coach Stuckey said. "I think
you'll see more of the aggressiveness return when we are back at
Handlin Field."
