The Crusaders went up 21-9 after the first quarter and 40-15 at halftime.
Lincoln Christian used fantastic ball movement and scoring in transition to fuel its dominant win.
“We shared the ball really good, we pushed it down the court and got free layups, and so that was really good for our team,” said senior forward/center Kena Ailes, who is this week’s Channel 8 Athlete of the Week.
