Here is the last round review presented by LBM Management.
Bottom-ranked Les Sangliers is still unable to win any game. This time they lost on the road their fifth consecutive match to fourth ranked Esch (3-2) 79-63 on Sunday evening. Esch maintains fourth position with 3-2 record. Les Sangliers at the other side still closes the standings with five games lost. They share the position with Grengewald. Esch are looking forward to face league's second-placed Musel Pikes in Stadrbredimus in the next round and it may be the game of the week. Les Sangliers will play at home against Grengewald (#6) and hopes to get finally their first victory.
Bottom-ranked Grengewald is still unable to win any game. This time they could not use their home court advantage losing their fifth consecutive match to third ranked Contern (4-2) 84-60. Canadian forward Marah Dykstra (188-2004, college: Michigan St., agency: LBM Management) scored 36 points (!!!) (on 14-of-16 shooting from the field) to lead the charge for the winners and Sarah Gates chipped in 25 points during the contest. The best for the losing side was Mali center Alimata Coulibaly (188-2005) with 30 points (on 14-of-18 shooting from the field). Contern have a solid three-game winning streak. They maintain third position with 4-2 record behind leader T71. Newly promoted Grengewald still closes the standings with five games lost. They share the position with Les Sangliers. Contern will have a break next round, and it should allow them to practice more before next game. Grengewald will play on the road against Les Sangliers (#7) in Wooltz and looks forward to get finally their first victory.
The game in Steinsel was also quite interesting. Second ranked Musel Pikes (4-1) played at the court of 5th ranked Amicale (2-3). Musel Pikes managed to secure a 6-point victory 72-66 on Saturday. Ella Gallatin notched a double-double by scoring 25 points and 12 rebounds to lead the effort. Even a double-double of 17 points and 12 rebounds by Brooke Flowers did not help to save the game for Amicale. Musel Pikes maintains second position with 4-1 record behind leader T71. Loser Amicale keeps the fifth place with three games lost. Musel Pikes will meet at home Esch (#4) in the next round. Amicale will play against the league's leader T71 in Dudelange and hope to secure a win.
