Regular Season Round 1: Groningen - Valmiera Glass 88-92

Date: September 23, 2025
Very significant was Latvian Valmiera Glass' 92-88 road victory against Dutch Groningen. Valmiera Glass forced 20 Groningen turnovers. Strangely Groningen outrebounded Valmiera Glass 33-21. Groningen was plagued by 27 personal fouls down the stretch. Lithuanian point guard Dominykas Stenionis (178-2002) nailed 24 points, 6 rebounds, 7 assists and 4 steals for the winning side and New Zealand swingman Aniwaniwa Tait-Jones (198-2001, college: UCSD) accounted for 20 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists. Four Valmiera Glass players scored in double figures. Valmiera Glass' coach allowed to play the deep bench players in such tough game. American guard Austin Luke (191-1994, college: Belmont) came up with a double-double by scoring 15 points and 16 assists and the other American import center Carlton Linguard Jr. (213-2001, college: USF) added 26 points and 5 rebounds respectively for Groningen in the defeat. Valmiera Glass will have a break next round, and it should allow them to practice more before next game. Groningen will play at home against TalTech and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
