Date: January 29, 2011
Important game to mention about took place in Fuchu. Fifth ranked Hitachi Sunrockers (11-15) saved a 3-point victory on the road edging second-ranked Toyota Alvark (17-9) 65-62 on Saturday evening. Toyota Alvark was ahead by 1 point at the halftime before a 17-11 third quarter run of Hitachi Sunrockers. American power forward Tyler Smith (203-80, college: Penn St.) notched 13 points and 7 rebounds to lead the effort and guard K.J. Matsui (188-85, college: Columbia) supported him with 13 points. Four Hitachi Sunrockers players scored in double figures. Even 6 points and 14 rebounds by American forward Jeff Gibbs (188-80, college: Otterbein) did not help to save the game for Toyota Alvark. Guard Taishi Ito (183-86, college: Portland) added 15 points for the hosts. Hitachi Sunrockers maintains fifth position with 11-15 record. Toyota Alvark at the other side keeps the second place with nine games lost. They share the position with Panasonic. Hitachi Sunrockers will play against Mitsubishi Dolphins (#7) in Nagoya in the next round. Toyota Alvark will play on the road against the league's leader Aishin Sea Horses (#1) in Kariya and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
