Lincoln Land played their third game in a row at home and came away victorious in as many games over the Eagles of Robert Morris – Springfield 92-63.
 
Robert Morris had one player, Leo Bowen, who came out in the first half and hit 5 of 8 threes early in the game and raced out to an early lead over the Loggers. However, after that he did not hit another three until much later in the game when the Loggers had the game under their control. Robert Morris led at 29-22 and forced Lincoln Land to call a time out. However, the Loggers finished on a 29-8 run and led at half 51-37. The second half was all Lincoln Land as they led by as many a 41 and outscored Robert Morris by 15 in the second half.
 
"Every win is a great win and besides a small stretch in the first half we had a complete game. I don't think anyone player poorly for us and that is a good sign for us moving forward. Proud of our effort and glad we get a small break for Thanksgiving following a win, " stated Head Coach Chad Jones following the win.
