The Knights end the season with a 7-1 loss against Sandburg. What a year it was for the LWC Knights. 2026 Regional Champs over the #1 overall seed. Countless memories and tons of very competitive baseball against numerous top 20 teams in the state. Keep your heads up boys!

A torrid Tingley.
After gruesome football injury, Luke Tingley heats up on baseball field for Lincoln-Way Central.
"A big part."

Closed out our summer program with a hill workout today. #GoKnights

Austin Welsh (‘26, IL) added a base knock here. He turns hard and drives this one into RF. Hard hit ball goes for a base knock here with good strength to leverage and impact it. @PG_Illinois @PG_Uncommitted #BattleForTheMW
