LINCOLN -- Lincoln pulled out a late rally with 3 runs in the final two innings to slip past Greenland, 3-2, in 3A-1 West baseball action Friday.
Greenland took a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the second and added another run in the fifth to move ahead, 2-0.
Caleb Lloyd (1-for-3), Tyrell Rich (1-for-3) and Josh Jetton (0-for-3) drove in runs for the Wolves. Lincoln had just 5 hits, but they were timely. Junior Jasper Terry (1-for-3) scored a run as did freshman Brodey Bowen and freshman Jackson Endacott. All three had a stolen base in the contest.
Lloyd earned the win for Lincoln throwing all 7 innings while allowing 5 hits, 2 runs, with 3 walks and 4 strike-outs.
That win reversed the outcome of a conference game earlier in the week.
