The
Lincoln Community High School Speech Team will
advance three speakers in two categories to the
State Semi-finals in Peoria this weekend. Left to
right: Claire Conrady in Original Comedy, and Justin
Woods and Lena Stapleton in Dramatic Duet Acting.
The students will compete once on Friday and then
again on Saturday morning. If they are in the top
six of the 18 that advance from all six Sectionals
across the state, they will then compete once more
for the title of State Champion. Congratulations to
all the members of this year's Speech Team for jobs
very well done, and good luck over the weekend!
