score.

halftime the Trojans were on top 27-16. The Lady Railers still
trailed by double-digits at the end of the third quarter, 36-26
the score. A huge 20-point fourth quarter put up by Lincoln made
the game very intense at the end. With 46.2 seconds left to play

Railers could not capitalize on opportunities, despite a great
effort and Charleston took the 53-46 win back home.
