Regular Season Round 13: Bendigo - Melbourne 81-74

Date: January 9, 2016
Rather expected game when 7th ranked Boomers (7-11) were defeated on the road by fifth ranked Bendigo Spirit (11-7) 81-74 on Saturday. The hosts trailed by 7 points at the halftime before their 26-9 charge in the third quarter, which allowed them to win the game. The former international center Gabrielle Richards (191-84, college: Oregon) stepped up and scored 32 points and 9 rebounds (on 14-of-16 shooting from the field) for the winners and American forward Kelsey Griffin (188-87, college: Nebraska) chipped in 13 points and 11 rebounds. At the losing side guard Madeleine Garrick (178-92) responded with 22 points and 5 rebounds and international swingman Alice Kunek (187-91) scored 13 points, 8 rebounds and 5 assists. Both teams had four players each who scored in double figures. Bendigo Spirit maintains fifth place with 11-7 record. Boomers lost fourth consecutive game. They keep the seventh position with 11 games lost. Bendigo Spirit will face league's second-placed Sydney Uni Flames at home in the next round and it will be quite challenging to get another victory. Boomers will play against Dandenong Rangers (#4) and hope to win that game.
