Regular Season Round 20: FoA - BC Nokia 75-67
Date: December 13, 2012
No shocking result in a game when second ranked Forssan Alku (12-3) beat at home 10th ranked BC Nokia (2-14) 75-67. It looked good early as BC Nokia took an 11-point lead at the end of first quarter. But then Forssan Alku took control and eventually winning the game that evening by 8 points. Forssan Alku made 23-of-30 charity shots (76.7 percent) during the game, while BC Nokia only scored six points from the stripe. 25 personal fouls committed by BC Nokia helped opponents get some easy free throw opportunities. The best player for the winners was international guard Henna Salomaa (175-89, college: Oakland) who scored 20 points. The former international power forward Laura Saarinen (187-92) chipped in a double-double by scoring 11 points and 10 rebounds. Four Forssan Alku players scored in double figures. American forward Shakara Jones (187-88, college: Missouri) produced a double-double by scoring 23 points and 12 rebounds and her fellow American import guard Amani Franklin (180-88, college: Kentucky) added 16 points and 7 rebounds respectively for the guests. BC Nokia's coach Antti Hyvarinen rotated ten players in this game, but that didn't help. Forssan Alku have an impressive eight-game winning streak. Forssan Alku maintains second position with 12-3 record having just three points less than leader Catz. BC Nokia lost fifth consecutive game. Newly promoted team keeps the tenth place with 14 games lost. Forssan Alku's next round opponent will be Kerava Energia Team (#8) on the road where they are favorite. BC Nokia will play against HyPo in Hyvinkaa and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
