Date: March 11, 2023
An exciting game between Top Four teams was played in Kauhajoki. First ranked Kauhajoki faced 4th ranked Kotka. Host Kauhajoki (25-5) smashed guests from Kotka (14-16) 102-65. It ended at the same time the two-game winning streak of Kotka. The game without a history. Kauhajoki led from the first minutes and controlled entire game increasing their lead in each quarter. They outrebounded Kotka 47-28 including a 30-19 advantage in defensive rebounds. The former international center Daniel Dolenc (205-1993, agency: Blacktop Management) orchestrated the victory with a double-double by scoring 26 points and 10 rebounds. American forward Dikembe Dixson (201-1996, college: UIC) contributed with a double-double by scoring 20 points and 10 rebounds for the winners. Five Kauhajoki players scored in double figures. American guard Roydell Brown (198-1998, college: McNeese St.) replied with 21 points and 6 rebounds (on 10-of-13 shooting from the field) and his fellow American import guard Brandon Tabb (193-1995, college: BCU) added 5 points and 8 rebounds in the effort for Kotka. Kauhajoki have a solid four-game winning streak. Defending champion maintains first position with 25-5 record. Kotka at the other side keeps the fourth place with 16 games lost. They share the position with 3 other teams. Kauhajoki will play against Vilpas (#3) in Salo in the next round, which may be the game of the day. Kotka will play on the road against the league's second-placed Seagulls in Helsinki and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
