Regular Season Round 17: Hawks - Tigers 90-68

Date: January 27, 2012
Bottom-ranked Wollongong Hawks managed to get a fifth victory. This time they outleveled fifth-ranked Melbourne Tigers in Gwynneville 90-68. It's especially surprising that the victory came too easily and 22-point difference suggests that Wollongong Hawks is in a good shape to leave the bottom place. The game was mostly controlled by Wollongong Hawks. Melbourne Tigers was better in third quarter 16-13. But it was not enough to take a lead and get a victory that evening. They outrebounded Melbourne Tigers 38-26 including 28 on the defensive glass. The former international swingman Glen Saville (197-76) nailed 13 points and 9 rebounds for the winning side and American guard Ayinde Ubaka (193-85, college: California) accounted for 15 points (was perfect 8-for-8 from the free throw line). Five Wollongong Hawks players scored in double figures. American point guard Myron Allen (180-79, college: Lee JC) came up with 17 points, 9 rebounds and 6 assists and the former international forward Liam Rush (202-82) added 18 points and 6 rebounds respectively for Melbourne Tigers in the defeat. The winner was already known earlier in the game, so both coaches allowed to play the bench players saving starting five for next games. Wollongong Hawks (5-13) moved-up to eighth place, which they share with 36ers. Melbourne Tigers lost their sixth game in a row. They dropped to the sixth position with 12 games lost. Wollongong Hawks will play against higher ranked Gold Coast Blaze (#5) in Broadbeach in the next round and it will be quite challenging to get another victory. Melbourne Tigers will play at home against Adelaide 36ers in Findon and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
