Regular Season Round 1: Aishin SH - Toshiba BT 68-51
Date: October 8, 2011
Very expected game when bottom-ranked Toshiba Thunders (0-2) lost to leader Aishin Sea Horses (2-0) in Kariya 51-68 on Saturday. The hosts trailed by 10 points after first quarter, but they stormed back and won the game by 17 points. Aishin Sea Horses dominated on the defensive end, holding Toshiba Thunders to just 7 points in second quarter. Aishin Sea Horses had a 34-21 advantage in offensive rebounds. Great defensive blocking was one of the keys in this match when Aishin Sea Horses made 7 blocks. It was a very good performance for the former international power forward J.R. Sakuragi (206-76, college: UCLA) who helped to win the game recording a double-double by scoring 26 points and 18 rebounds (made all of his seven free throws). Jamaican center Kevin Young (206-84, college: Missouri) contributed with 10 points and 9 rebounds for the winners. Four Aishin Sea Horses players scored in double figures. American forward Chris Moss (204-80, college: W.Virginia) answered with 11 points and 8 rebounds and the former international power forward Yoshifumi Kuwahara (200-80) added 8 points and 9 rebounds in the effort for Toshiba Thunders. Toshiba Thunders' coach rotated eleven players seeing no chance for a win. Defending champion maintains first place with 2-0 record, which they share with Toyota Alvark. Loser Toshiba Thunders still closes the standings with two games lost. Aishin Sea Horses will face Hokkaido L. (#5) in Saporro in the next round. Toshiba Thunders will play at home against Hitachi Sunrockers in Osaka.
