Besides the $1 50/50 raffles, there is now a "$1 Shoot For The Loot" with prizes for foul shots, 3-point shots, and shots from half-court! Looks like an exciting winter of basketball at the high school in many ways! As usual, we'll be covering every home game for your Lincoln area website WelcomeToLincolnMaine.com. The first home boys' game will be Friday, December 7th as Central makes a visit to Lincoln. The first girls' home game will be against Calais on Friday the 14th. We encourage you to come to the games and support our area athletes.
