The Lynx were able to strike first when junior
Abdoulaye Sylla (Moline) found the back of the net just fifteen
minutes into the first half. Lincoln was able to protect that
lead all the way up to the 85th minute of play, but gave up a
counter attack goal which tied the score. Regulation time ended
with no further scoring then two overtime periods were played
with neither team being able to manage a goal.
LC Head Coach Ben Massena was happy with his team’s overall
performance against a quality opponent. “St. Francis was in the
top four of their conference last year,” noted Massena. “We hung
right with them and had our chances to win, which is a sign that
we are definitely ready to compete at this level.”
Lincoln (0-0-1) will host their first home match of the season
on Tuesday, August 27th against Greenville University. Match
time is set for 4:00 PM.
