Crawley boss Rob Elliot secured his first win as the Red Devils ended a run of six successive Sky Bet League One defeats with a 3-0 victory over Lincoln.
Town turned on the style after the break with Will Swan, Ronan Darcy and substitute Rushian Hepburn-Murphy all on target.
Crawley had threatened in only the second minute when Darcy saw an effort cleared away after Max Anderson had played him in.
Lincoln should have taken the lead on 27 minutes when midfielder Erik Ring set up Dom Jefferies at the far post, but he put the ball over.
The visitors became more threatening as the half wore on, as Jefferies sent an in-swinging corner against the far post shortly before the break.
Crawley broke the deadlock within a minute of the re-start.
Swan raced onto a through ball by Jeremy Kelly to smash a shot into the roof of the net at the near post.
The Imps threatened to respond through Ethan Hamilton, but his low shot was saved by Jojo Wollacott.
Darcy latched onto a long ball forward to double Crawley’s lead in the 73rd minute, drilling a low shot into bottom corner past stranded Lincoln keeper George Wickens.
Substitute Hepburn-Murphy sealed victory deep into stoppage time after racing onto Panutche Camara’s pass.
