Derby weekend for NF1 basketball



Armentières 2008-2009
Armentières finally beat Dunkerque


Roche Vendeé NF1 basketball season is going well. They are the only club with a perfect record.

They had a tricky task in the derby match against Rennes and came away with the victory (83-78).

Jennifer Galand was the hot hand for the leaders with her 26 points, while Maud Médénou led the scoring with 17 points for Rennes.

With the SIG men (Pro A) playing at home, a derby between the two teams from Strasbourg at the same time was not what either team wanted.

However it was not possible to find a suitable time that was convenient for both sides. So the match was played at the standard time.

Strasbourg ABC won the contest against Illkirch-Graffendstaden (79-65) with Djéné Diawara leading the way with 25 points and 21 rebounds.

Armentières ended their negative series against local rival Dunkerque by winning comfortably (73-53). Virginie Bremont led the scoring with 18 points.

With this victory Armentières joins Strasbourg ABC with 6 wins and 2 losses.

Limoges may have the longest injury list in NF1 with key players gone for the season.

Limoges shot 14-of-28 from the land of many as they went on to win (80-72).

Frédérique Ayissi from Limoges, who did not attempt a three-pointer, was the player of the match with 21 points, 10 rebounds and 4 assists.

For Pleyber-Christ it was the same old story of having the game in hand and then losing on the road against US Laveyron (66-76).

Ifs required overtime to keep the home team's weekend record intact this weekend to overcome Colomiers (80-74) while Toulouse showed no mercy to the CFBB (80-47).
