Wolves Edge West Fork

LINCOLN — The Lincoln boys basketball team continued its resurgence with a nail-biting 63-62 win over West Fork in 3A-1 league play Tuesday, Jan. 12 at Wolfpack Arena.

Lincoln pointguard Weston Massey chipped in 12 points for the Wolves while Kole Pennington also hit double figures with 11 for West Fork.
