Regular Season Round 38: Kauhajoki - Seagulls 83-65

Date: April 13, 2019
Very expected game when 7th ranked Helsinki Seagulls (18-21) lost on the road to second ranked Kauhajoki (28-11) 83-65 on Saturday. Helsinki Seagulls was tied after three quarters but could not keep up in the last quarter eventually losing the game. Kauhajoki dominated on the defensive end, holding Helsinki Seagulls to just 6 points in fourth quarter. They made 19-of-23 free shots (82.6 percent) during the game. American swingman Rene Rougeau (198-86, college: UNLV, agency: Blacktop Management) notched a double-double by scoring 16 points, 12 rebounds, 8 assists and 4 steals to lead the effort and the other American import guard Cameron Jones (193-89, college: NAU) supported him with 20 points and 5 rebounds. Jones is a former Eurobasket Summer League player, which is considered top summer league for players who want to play basketball overseas. Five Kauhajoki players scored in double figures. Kauhajoki's coach Jussi Laakso allowed to play the deep bench players saving starting five for next games. Even a double-double of 19 points and 12 rebounds by American swingman Wayne Blackshear (196-92, college: Louisville, agency: Inception Sports) did not help to save the game for Helsinki Seagulls. International Tuukka Kotti (205-81, college: Providence) added 15 points and 8 rebounds for the guests. Defending champion maintains second position with 28-11 record having four points less than leader Vilpas. Helsinki Seagulls lost third consecutive game. They keep the seventh place with 21 games lost. Kauhajoki will meet Joensuun Kataja (#4) on the road in the next round. Helsinki Seagulls will play against BC Nokia and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
