Regular Season Round 21: Kibirkstis - Vilkmerge 72-63

Date: January 30, 2018
Rather expected game in Vilnius where 6th ranked Vilkmerge (4-13) was defeated by third ranked Kibirkstis (13-4) 72-63. It looked good early as Vilkmerge took a 6-point lead at the end of first quarter. But then Kibirkstis had a 16-7 second period charge getting the lead and Vilkmerge was not able to take back game control losing it eventually 63-72. Kibirkstis dominated on the defensive end, holding Vilkmerge to just 7 points in second quarter. They dominated down low during the game scoring 56 of its points in the paint compared to Vilkmerge's 32. Kibirkstis forced 25 Vilkmerge turnovers. Their players were unselfish on offense dishing 25 assists comparing to just 7 passes made by Vilkmerge's players. Kibirkstis brought some defensive toughness making 7 blocks. International forward Laura Juskaite (187-97) nailed a double-double by scoring 14 points and 10 rebounds for the winning side and the former international forward Gabija Meskonyte (181-98) accounted for 16 points and 4 assists. Kibirkstis' coach Jurgita Streimikyte allowed to play the deep bench players saving starting five for next games. Forward Martyna Petrenaite (181-98) came up with 17 points and 6 rebounds and Karolina Ambotaite (184-96) added 14 points respectively for Vilkmerge in the defeat. Four Vilkmerge players scored in double figures. Kibirkstis have an impressive series of five victories in a row. They maintain third place with 13-4 record having just three points less than leader Suduva. Vilkmerge lost third consecutive game. They keep the sixth position with 13 games lost. Kibirkstis will play against league's second-placed Hoptrans-Sirenos Kaunas on the road in the next round and it will be for sure the game of the week. Vilkmerge will play against Fortuna (#5) in Klaipeda and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
