Listen "SDSU '25 recruit Lincoln Semchenko (OL, SF Christian)"
Episode Synopsis
What does "larger than life" sound like? In this case, a lot like it looks. Lincoln Semchenko is a 6'5, 300 lb. road-grading all-state offensive lineman from Sioux Falls Christian who is joining the "605 Hogs" at South Dakota State. You'll have a hard time believing he is just 18 years old with his wit, wisdom and storytelling. The son of former North Dakota State and Sioux Falls Storm lineman John Semchenko, Lincoln describes the all-out coaching his father gave him from an early age, his three years (fourth, fifth and sixth grade) in the Brandon Valley School District — and brushes with eventual Lynx stud linemen, like Hudson Parliament — building a state champion at SFC, and why he is gung ho about becoming a Jackrabbit. What advice does he have for high school athletes who are constantly bombarded with calls and texts from college coaches? What was his reaction when he found out Jimmy Rogers and his entire staff was leaving for Washington State, and did Rogers try to bring Lincoln with him? It is 47 minutes of living large.
