Despite more struggles at the free-throw line, Lincoln connected on six straight freebies in the final 22 seconds to hold off the Vikings, who entered the contest in a second-place tie, 55-48. It was the program’s second straight win and evens the Lions’ division record at 3-3 (7-17 overall).
“I don’t think the ladies understand what an ugly win means, but that’s what this was,” Lincoln head coach Jessica Kern said. “When the chips are down, you have to find a way to fight. It’s breaking the mold. In the past we were down and stayed down.”
Following a lackluster first half, LU outscored ECSU by a dozen the rest of the way. And even though the Vikings (3-3, 12-10) were dominant on the boards, and shot the ball a bit better from the floor, the Lions forced 31 turnovers and had a more than 2-to-1 advantage in free throw attempts.
