Dameligaen Round 5 (Regular Season): Herlev lose to Falcon in the game between Top 4 teams

Here is the last round review presented by LBM Management.

Very significant was Falcon's (#1, 5-0) victory against 4th placed Herlev (1-3) 106-55. Falcon dominated down low during the game scoring 52 of its points in the paint compared to Herlev's 22. Falcon forced 19 Herlev turnovers and outrebounded them 45-26 including 19 on the offensive glass. They looked well-organized offensively handing out 32 assists comparing to just 18 passes made by Herlev's players. International guard Elisabeth Brynaa (176-1993) stepped up with a double-double by scoring 14 points, 10 rebounds and 6 assists for the winners and point guard Nikoline Sandback (169-2001) chipped in 9 points, 11 rebounds and 9 assists. The former international forward Ellen Iversen (180-1997) responded with 21 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists. The winner was already known earlier in the game, so both coaches allowed to play the bench players saving starting five for next games. Undefeated Falcon (5-0) have an impressive series of five victories in a row. Defending champion maintains first place with a perfect record of 5 victories in a row. Herlev at the other side keeps the fourth position with three games lost. Falcon will have a break next round, and it should allow them to practice more before next game. Herlev will play on the road against the league's second-placed Aabyhoj (#2) and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
Bottom-ranked Amager (0-4) is still winless. But it was rather predictable considering how strong their opponent was. This time they could not use their home court advantage losing their fourth consecutive match to second ranked Aabyhoj (3-1) 71-51. International center Caroline Wich (185-1996, college: Portland St.) nailed a double-double by scoring 18 points and 14 rebounds for the winning side and Freya Jensen accounted for 15 points. The former international center Rikke Fabricius (186-1992, college: CMU) came up with a double-double by scoring 25 points and 10 rebounds for Amager in the defeat. Both coaches used bench players which allowed the starters a little rest for the next games. Aabyhoj maintains second place with 3-1 record having just three points less than leader Falcon. Amager lost their fourth game in a row. They still close the standings with four games lost. Aabyhoj will play against Herlev (#4) at home in the next round. Amager will play against SISU and hopes to get finally their first victory.

The most impressive stats of the last round was 18 points, 8 assists and 5 steals by Taylor Gleason of Falcon.
