Coach Jackson does not mind to play defense and beat you 25-20. Cooper wants to score over 100 and try to out score you. Lincoln Defense is starting to find its identity. Score may be little closer without Bishop but game favors Lincoln at home 72-55.

Who said he hasn't done a good job?  Always players over plays, I would probably lean towards his son as more important.  After he graduates, if he continues to coach will be a better test... Kudos to him for making them competitive in a tough district. 

I was echoing what @Statsdontlie said in an earlier post. And you're correct, talent level at rural, county schools always ebbs and flows.

27-17 Lincoln at the half

34-30 Lincoln after 3.

47-44 Lincoln with ball. 35 seconds left.

Lincoln wins. Garrard missed some huge free throws in the 4th. Alcorn with huge defensive stops and wasn't afraid to let Cooper know about it. Love the competitive spirit in the 45th!

This was a very fun game to watch. Garrard played gritty and if Coach Cooper would involve everyone in the offense instead of setting everything up for his son and Fugate only, Garrard could be better. Got to utilize Sulla.
