LC Coach Pat Lepper saw the win as a team effort. “Every player on
our roster got in and contributed to the win,” he said. “We let a
lead get away from us late in the game, but kept our cool and made
the plays down the stretch we needed to get the job done.”
Next up for LC is a trip to Quincy, Illinois on Saturday to face
John Wood CC. Game time will be 3:00 PM.
