Regular Season Round 12: Adelaide - Townsville F. 80-68
Date: January 7, 2012
The game between Top Four teams took place in Adelaide. First ranked host Adelaide Lightning (12-2) defeated 3rd ranked Townsville Fire (10-7) 80-68. The game was mostly controlled by Adelaide Lightning. Townsville Fire was better in second period 21-19. But it was not enough to take a lead and get a victory that evening. Adelaide Lightning made 22-of-29 charity shots (75.9 percent) during the game. Adelaide Lightning had a 35-23 advantage in offensive rebounds. Their players were unselfish on offense dishing 22 assists. The winners were led by the former international center Suzy Batkovic-Brown (193-80) who had that evening a double-double by scoring 34 points (!!!), 11 rebounds and 4 assists and international center Abby Bishop (189-88) supported her with 19 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists. Even a double-double of 11 points and 11 rebounds by American forward Shanavia Dowdell (188-87, college: Louisiana Tech, agency: LBM Management) did not help to save the game for Townsville Fire. International guard Rachael Flanagan (170-82) added 9 points and 6 assists. Townsville Fire's coach rotated ten players in this game, but that didn't help. Adelaide Lightning have an impressive seven-game winning streak. They maintain first position with 12-2 record. Townsville Fire at the other side dropped to the fourth place with seven games lost. Adelaide Lightning will play against bottom-ranked West Coast Waves (#10) in Perth in the next round and are hoping to win another game. Townsville Fire will play at home against AIS (#9) in Belconnen and hopes to get back on the winning track.
