Goal-shy Lincoln’s drought stretched to 378 minutes following a 0-0 draw with Stevenage.
But the Imps ended a three-game losing streak with a point from this mid-table clash at Sincil Bank.
Stevenage, who have lost just once since the start of December, started brightly with Carl Piergianni having a goal ruled out for offside.
Tom Bayliss forced Stevenage goalkeeper Murphy Cooper into a good stop with a strike from the edge of the box inside the first 10 minutes.
Defender Piergianni proved a threat once again as his header was superbly tipped over by George Wickens.
