LAST TIME OUT
Lincoln (0-3, 0-1 CIAA) looks to build on its offensive production from last week's 49-27 loss at Shaw. The Lions gained 362 yards and scored three fourth-quarter touchdowns. Quarterback Jayden Triplett (Elkton, MD/Elkton HS) completed 17 of 25 passes for 233 yards and three touchdowns, while Kyrie Tyson (Elkton, MD/Elkton HS) caught nine passes for 145 yards and two scores. Tyson's performance earned him CIAA Receiver of the Week honors.

On defense, Charles Thompson (Chester, PA/Stem Academy) led Lincoln with 13 tackles against Shaw, and Zion Knox (Philadelphia, PA) added 10. The Lions will aim to pair that effort with a cleaner game after four turnovers proved costly on the road.

SCOUTING BLUEFIELD STATE
Bluefield State enters at 0-4 following a 42-0 loss at Virginia Union. The Big Blue will be playing their second consecutive road game as Lincoln seeks its first win of the season in front of its home crowd.
