Lincoln’s Sophomore Center Mack Hesse rolled his ankle two minutes into the contest.
Kaleb Mundy, 5’8 sophomore, Lincoln’s sixth man, came in for the 6’4 pivot man, making Lincoln smaller but a little faster and adding another ball handler to the already gifted squad.
Sophomore forward Kyle Eckhoff 6’3, decided to take over on the inside in Hesse’s absence, with a career high 29 points as Lincoln, the number one seed, defeated Otterville 67-40 in the semi-final of the Otterville tournament.
