				The Lady Railers put forth a great effort on Thursday night at 
				Roy S. Anderson Gymnasium against the undefeated Charleston 
				Trojans but fell short in the final minutes, 53-46 the final 
				score. 
				
				  
				
				Charleston took a 16-7 lead at the end of the first quarter. By 
				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 
				in the game Lincoln trailed 49-46. Down the stretch the Lady 
				Railers could not capitalize on opportunities, despite a great 
				effort and Charleston took the 53-46 win back home.  
				
				  
				
				Kloe Froebe led Lincoln with 21 points. Reese McCuan tossed in 
				16 points for the Lady Railers.
