Regular Season Round 17: Musel Pikes - Amicale 70-76

Date: January 29, 2011
The game in Stadrbredimus was also quite interesting. Fourth ranked Amicale (11-6) played at the court of 6th ranked Musel Pikes (8-10). Amicale managed to secure a 6-point victory 76-70 on Saturday. Musel Pikes was trailing by 1 point at halftime but managed to get 7-point lead after three quarters before a 27-14 charge of Amicale, which allowed them to win the game. They dominated on the defensive end, holding Musel Pikes to just 5 points in second quarter. Amicale had a 38-26 advantage in offensive rebounds. Great defensive blocking was one of the keys in this match when Amicale made 7 blocks. American forward Louis Birdsong (198-88, college: George Mason, agency: Scorers 1st Sportmanagement) stepped up with a double-double by scoring 18 points and 20 rebounds for the winners and guard Christopher Jones (186-90) chipped in 23 points and 8 rebounds. The former international guard Guy Schmit (185-80) responded with a double-double by scoring 17 points and 12 rebounds and American forward Trenton Wurtz (203-83, college: Indiana St.) produced a double-double by scoring 17 points and 12 rebounds. Four Musel Pikes players scored in double figures. Amicale moved-up to third place, which they share with Basket Esch. Loser Musel Pikes keeps the sixth position with ten games lost. They share it with Residence. Amicale will meet at home league's second-placed Etzella in the next round and it will be for sure the game of the week. Musel Pikes will play against Residence (#7) in Bereldange and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
