Dear Basketball Fans,
On behalf of the faculty, administration, and student body of Lincoln Community High School, I am pleased to welcome you to today's contest. We are honored to be your host.
To all athletes competing today, we wish you success in displaying your abilities to the fullest. The sportsmanship, fair play, and respect you demonstrate during this contest will set the course for your life's future achievements. Your hard work and dedication proves you are on the path to becoming a champion both in sport and life.
Lincoln Community High School basketball is rich in Railsplitter tradition. The 2017 - 2018 campaign promises to be another memorable year in the making. Please continue to support the hard work accomplished by our basketball team, coaches, cheerleaders, pom pon squad, and pep band. No where else will you find a "Light's Out" introduction like ours at LCHS!
A special thank you goes out to the Railer Basketball Booster Club and our program sponsors for all of their hard work and dedication to our student athletes. Given the opportunity, please patronize our sponsors and let them know you appreciate their support.
Sportsmanship begins and ends with each one of us. Spectators can and do make a difference - be positive.
Enjoy today's game, become a part of Railer Nation, and Go Railers.
As we embark on a new year of Railer Basketball, it is our great pleasure to welcome you to Lincoln Community High School and Roy S. Anderson Gymnasium. We are very fortunate to have a dedicated coaching staff leading our student-athletes as well as a strong network of support from our community and parents. Your devotion provides our student-athletes the strength to dream without limits and to achieve the loftiest of goals. We would like to thank each and every individual and business for their generosity and support.
The Booster Club would also like to thank the cheerleaders, Railette dance team, and pep band members for contributing to the invigorating atmosphere. There is no greater thrill than to hear the home crowd after your enthusiastic performance. The atmosphere you create is just as important as the following thirty-two minutes.
This is also a new year for Railer Basketball as we begin our journey with the Apollo Conference. Joining the Apollo will align LCHS with schools of similar size, focus, and interests. This move will strengthen and enhance the long standing tradition of excellence in academics and extracurricular activities. Lincoln High School has tremendous student-athletes on our campus in all of our sports, all striving to become greater on and off the court. We invite everyone to join us in celebrating our student-athletes throughout the year and attend one of our athletic events. While you’re at it, bring a friend...or two. We’ll see you in the stands!
GO RAILERS!!
