Regular Season Round 17: Kataja - Karhubasket 78-73

Date: January 3, 2024
The game between closely ranked teams ended with fourth ranked Kataja's (10-7) home victory over 5th ranked Karhubasket (9-9) in Joensuu 78-73 on Wednesday. The hosts trailed by 13 points after first quarter, but they rallied back and won the game by 5 points. American-Sierra Leonean guard Richaud Pack (192-1992, college: Maryland) nailed 34 points (!!!) for the winning side and Canadian power forward Elijah Lufile (201-1997, college: ORU) accounted for 11 points and 9 rebounds. Four Kataja players scored in double figures. Kataja's coach Petri Virtanen used a ten-player rotation in such tough game. American forward Nathaniel Pollard Jr (196-2000, college: UMES, agency: Elevate Sports Alliance) came up with 17 points, 8 rebounds and 5 assists and the former international Topias Palmi (195-1994, agency: Blacktop Management) added 18 points respectively for Karhubasket in the defeat. Kataja maintains fourth place with 10-7 record. Loser Karhubasket dropped to the sixth position with nine games lost. Kataja will meet at home higher ranked Korihait (#3) in the next round and it will be quite challenging to get another victory. Karhubasket will play against Bisons and hope to secure a win.
