Regular Season Round 11: Mitsubishi DD - Toshiba BT 71-58

Date: December 17, 2011
The game between closely ranked teams ended with 8th ranked Toshiba Thunders' (2-20) road loss to seventh ranked Mitsubishi Dolphins (9-13) 58-71 on Saturday. It was a very close game until the last quarter, when Mitsubishi Dolphins's pressure prevailed and they won that period 23-15 extending their advantage to 13 points. The best player for the winners was American forward Ron Hale (203-77, college: Florida St.) who had a double-double by scoring 15 points, 10 rebounds and 4 assists. Swingman Shingo Utsumi (188-84) chipped in 16 points (perfect from the field making all six shots). American center Scott Merritt (208-82, college: Marquette) produced 17 points and 6 rebounds and the former international swingman Shohei Kikuchi (190-85) added 7 points and 6 rebounds respectively for the guests. Toshiba Thunders' coach rotated eleven players in this game, but that didn't help. Mitsubishi Dolphins have a solid series of four victories in a row. They moved-up to sixth place, which they share with Hokkaido L. Toshiba Thunders lost sixth consecutive game. They stay dead last with 20 lost games. Mitsubishi Dolphins will face league's leader Toyota Alvark in Fuchu in the next round and it will be quite challenging to get another victory. Toshiba Thunders will play at home against Panasonic Trians (#4) in Osaka.
