They beat Group E rivals Bulgaria (102-88) in the opening game of the Quarter-Final Round.
A 15-0 run during the first quarter set Lithuania on their way with nine minutes played (24-9). Lithuania's strength in the paint (72 points) was too much for their opponents as they cruised to victory. Dalia Belickaite and Laura Juskaite had 26 and 23 points respectively for the winners.
Teodora Dineva had a game high 27 points for Bulgaria.
Poland did not give Ukraine any chance during the first 24 minutes of the game. Leading (44-17) they just paced themselves the rest of the way to win (69-72).

Hungary lost their unbeaten record in overtime to Bosnia and Herzegovina (65-66).
The only three-pointer by Bernadett Horvath from Hungary with one minute left in the fourth quarter was enough to keep the hosts alive and eventually sent the game into overtime.
Andela Delic scored with 27 seconds left which turned out to be the game winning shot. She finished the game with the most points at 19.
In the lower classification games for 9th-18th place, Israel made a good start as they eased past Switzerland (63-33) behind a double-double performance by Daniel Raber with 16 points and 14 rebounds.
