Lincoln Lutheran eliminates Cedar Catholic in C2
LINCOLN - The lower seeds continue to shine in Class C2.
Just hours after 7th-seeded Norfolk Catholic dominated in the state quarterfinals, six-seed Lincoln Lutheran followed suit, pulling away from three-seed Cedar Catholic in the second half of a comfortable 67-50 win.
That sets up a semi-final matchup between a six-seed and seven-seed that looked like the favorites.
The win was Lincoln Lutheran's first ever at the state tournament.
