Lincoln women have chance for rare streak

Fresh off a noteworthy win, the Lincoln women's basketball team will try to put together something it hasn't had all season - a winning streak.

With Saturday's 73-58 win over Nebraska-Omaha, the Blue Tigers snapped a 16-game losing skid in style.

Lincoln's previous win came in the season opener, immediately prior to the streak, so today's game against Missouri Southern will be the Blue Tigers' first chance since way back on Nov. 13, 2010, to win two straight.

The Lions come into the 5:30 p.m. contest at Jason Gym fourth in the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association at 9-5 (11-7 overall), while Lincoln is last in the 12-team league at 1-13 (2-16 overall).
