[May 02, 2024]    Make that a home run in five of the last six games for Lincoln senior Colbie Glenn. He led off the game with a home run to center on Wednesday afternoon versus the New Berlin/Franklin/Waverly Pretzels and the Railsplitters didn’t stop there.

 

They scored six runs, including a fifth inning home run by Brenden Wurth. When the dust settled Lincoln picked up a 6-0 win and improved their record to 14-7 on the season.

After Glenn’s lead-off home run, the Railsplitters scored again in the first inning. Jarrett Evers singled, Wurth walked and Drew Hayes batted in a run on a sacrifice fly.

Lincoln held a 2-0 lead until the fifth inning, when they tacked on more runs.

Glenn and Evers each walked and Michael Lucas singled with one out in the inning. Glenn scored on a wild pitch and with two runners still on base, Wurth smacked a three-run home run to right field to give Lincoln a 6-0 lead.

That was more than enough offense to earn Carson Fuiten the complete game win. Fuiten worked seven innings, allowing four hits and one walk. He struck out three.

Colbie Glenn and Michael Lucas each led Lincoln with two hits.

Jarrett Evers and Brenden Wurth each had one hit.

Lincoln will host Peoria Notre Dame today at 4:30 p.m.
