Lincoln County tried to get city to play a football game next year but they (city) turned it down. It is very difficult to have three high schools in a county the size of LC. The population of LC 40 years ago in 1980 was 26,500 ish and now only 34,600 ish. One school has 8 man football, one is 1A and the other is 5A. Talent is divided up among 3 schools and if has been difficult for LCHS.
