Regular Season Round 5: Aishin SH - Tochigi Brex 82-72

Date: November 3, 2012
Not a big story in a game in Kariya where 8th ranked Tochigi Brex (1-9) was defeated by third ranked Aishin Sea Horses (7-3) 82-72 on Saturday. The game was mostly controlled by Aishin Sea Horses. Tochigi Brex was better in third quarter 22-16. But it was not enough to take a lead and get a victory that evening. Great defensive blocking was one of the keys in this match when Aishin Sea Horses made 8 blocks. Swingman Shuhei Kitagawa (185-85) stepped up and scored 22 points and 6 rebounds for the winners and the former international power forward J.R. Sakuragi (206-76, college: UCLA) chipped in 17 points, 10 rebounds and 4 assists. International forward Tomoo Amino (196-80) responded with 15 points and 6 rebounds and international guard Takuya Kawamura (193-86) scored 11 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists. Four Tochigi Brex players scored in double figures. Tochigi Brex's coach Antanas Sireika let to play ten players, but that didn't help to avoid defeat in this game. Aishin Sea Horses maintains third place with 7-3 record behind leader Toyota Alvark. Tochigi Brex lost their fifth game in a row. They stay at the bottom position with nine games lost. Aishin Sea Horses will face league's second-placed Panasonic Trians in Osaka in the next round and it will be for sure the game of the week. Tochigi Brex will play on the road against Mitsubishi Dolphins (#6) in Nagoya and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
