Ceyaan Lutt scored a game-high 21 points for Lincoln (20-10), which has won 12 straight and 17 out of 20. DaMarco Reed Jr., a 6-foot-4 forward, had 17 points. No other Lincoln player had more than five.

Lincoln juniors Sommari Tanner (0), Kaleb Banh (23) and Ceyaan Lutt (3). 

Darrigan Wong had 10 points to lead Galileo (16-14). 

"We had a good start," said Lincoln coach Carl Jacobs, whose team returned just two players from last year's 27-4 team . "But Galileo wouldn't go away. Our inexperience showed at times, but Ceyaan kept us ahead with his first-half scoring and solid defense on their best player." 

Lincoln beat Lowell twice earlier this season, 53-40 and 57-48. The Mustangs also defeated Lincoln in last year's SFS title game, 54-27 and the 2022 championship game, 49-45.
