Lincolnton extended their home winning streak to eight games thanks to a huge performance from LJ Smith IV. The Lincolnton Wolves came out on top against the West Caldwell Warriors by a score of 64-51 on Tuesday which was due in part to Smith IV, who dropped a double-double with 23 points and ten boards. The game was his 27th in a row with at least 19 points.

The team also got some help courtesy of Tucker Robinette, who almost dropped a double-double with nine points and nine assists. That's the most assists he has posted since back in January.

Lincolnton is on a roll lately: they've won 12 of their last 13 matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 23-5 record this season. West Caldwell is on a four-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 13-13.

Coming up, Lincolnton is taking a road trip to face off against Maiden at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Lincolnton knows how to get points on the board -- the team has finished with 55 points or more in their past 28 contests -- so hopefully Maiden likes a good challenge. West Caldwell does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
