Lincoln has gone a perfect 5-0 against Ingraham recently and they'll look to pad the win column further on Monday. The Lynx are taking a road trip to challenge the Rams at 5:00 p.m. Lincoln is coming into the match hot, having won their last four games.

Last Friday, Lincoln beat Eastside Catholic 7-3.

Meanwhile, there's no place like home for Ingraham, who bounced back after a loss on the road on Monday. They came out on top in a nail-biter against Ballard on Friday, sneaking past 3-2. While the Rams didn't have the best season last year (they finished 7-14), it's starting to look like those struggles are a thing of the past.

Ingraham got a great performance from Takeshi Malady as he tossed 6.1 innings while giving up just two earned runs off seven hits.

At the plate, Ingraham's win was truly a team effort as three different players contributed at least one hit. One of them was Brandon Kwon, who went 2-for-3 with two RBI.

Ingraham pushed their record up to 8-1 with the victory, which was their sixth straight at home. Those home wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 12.0 runs over those games. As for Lincoln, their record now sits at 7-3.

Lincoln skirted past Ingraham 5-4 when the teams last played back in March of 2024. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Lynx since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
