Regular Season Round 20: Botas - Mersin 76-69

Date: February 26, 2012
The game in Adana was also worth to mention about. One of their biggest challengers Mersin (11-9) played at the court of fifth ranked Botas (10-10). Botas managed to secure a 7-point victory 76-69. It ended at the same time the five-game winning streak of Mersin. The hosts took control from the first minutes by winning first half. But Mersin won third quarter 15-8. However it was not enough to take a lead and get a victory that evening. Americans were the main players on the court. Center Courtney Paris (193-87, college: Oklahoma) orchestrated the victory with a double-double by scoring 12 points, 14 rebounds, 4 assists and 4 blocks. Forward Monica Wright (180-88, college: Virginia, agency: LBM Management) contributed with 22 points for the winners. Four Botas players scored in double figures. Guard Shavonte Zellous (178-86, college: Pittsburgh) replied with 26 points and 9 rebounds and forward Christi Thomas (191-82, college: Georgia) added 14 points and 5 rebounds in the effort for Mersin. Botas maintains fifth position with 10-10 record, which they share with Samsun. Mersin at the other side keeps the fourth place with nine games lost. Botas' next round opponent will be Tarsus Bld (#9) in Mersin. Mersin will play on the road against the league's second-placed Galatasaray (#2) in Istanbul and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
