Regular Season Round 15: Adelaide - Melbourne 70-47

Date: January 29, 2016
The game between seventh ranked Adelaide Lightning (8-12) and 8th ranked Boomers (7-14) in Adelaide on Friday ended with biggest points difference. Adelaide Lightning outscored guests from Melbourne 70-47. The game without a history. Adelaide Lightning led from the first minutes and controlled entire game increasing their lead in each quarter. They dominated on the defensive end, holding Boomers to just 6 points in second quarter. Adelaide Lightning made 17-of-22 free shots (77.3 percent) during the game. They also forced 25 Boomers turnovers. It was a good game for American forward Mikaela Ruef (190-90, college: Stanford) who led her team to a victory with a double-double by scoring 13 points, 15 rebounds and 4 assists. Her fellow American import forward Kayla Standish (187-89, college: Gonzaga, agency: LBM Management) contributed with 26 points and 7 steals for the winners. Adelaide Lightning's coach Tracy York felt very confident using entire bench and allowed the starting five to rest. Guard Madeleine Garrick (178-92) answered with 10 points and 8 rebounds and international swingman Alice Kunek (187-91) added 15 points in the effort for Boomers. Adelaide Lightning maintains seventh place with 8-12 record. Boomers lost seventh consecutive game. They keep the eighth position with 14 games lost. Adelaide Lightning will face higher ranked SEQ (#6) in Crestmead in the next round and it will be quite challenging to get another victory. Boomers will play at home against the league's second-placed Townsville Fire where they are definitely not considered as a favorite in this game either.
