Second Stage Round 5: Kataja - Nokia 81-92

Date: March 12, 2022
The game between closely ranked teams ended with 8th ranked Kataja's (11-16) home loss to seventh ranked Nokia (13-14) 81-92 on Saturday. The game without a history. Nokia led from the first minutes and controlled entire game increasing their lead in each quarter. They made 20-of-23 free shots (87.0 percent) during the game. The best player for the winners was American guard Justin Pierce (201-1998, college: UNC, agency: Inception Sports) who had a double-double by scoring 25 points, 10 rebounds and 5 assists. Forward Max Besselink (202-2002) chipped in 21 points and 8 rebounds. American guard Nick Griffin (188-1995, college: St.Peter's) produced 17 points and the other American import Christopher McKnight (201-1987, college: Akron) added 12 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists respectively for the hosts. Four Nokia and five Kataja players scored in double figures. Nokia maintains seventh place with 13-14 record. Loser Kataja keeps the eighth position with 16 games lost. They share it with Kobrat. Nokia will meet at home bottom-ranked Korihait (#12) in the next round which should be theoretically an easy game. Kataja will play against Kobrat (#8) and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
