Grëngewald Hueschtert controlled AS Soleuvre 93-78 in the M-U22 N2 Qualification, staying perfect (4-0) and atop the standings, with Soleuvre holding second place (2-1). The visitors burst out 3-11, but Grëngewald answered with a 9-0 run sparked by Sam Urwald (19, 1.89m) and Luca Pividor to flip it 12-11 and close Q1 at 22-20. A composed second quarter, including a 5-0 spurt to end the half, built a 50-38 cushion for Yannick Julien's team.
After the break, Soleuvre leaned on their leaders but could not cut the gap: Charel Diedenhofen (19, 1.97m) kept scoring at the line and inside, while Ibrahim Hasic added punch on the roll. The third period also saw an unsportsmanlike on Bob Graffe and a technical on Diego Fine, yet the scoreboard remained largely in Grëngewald's hands (71-61 after three).
The key stretch came early in Q4 when Urwald poured in eight consecutive points to push it to 87-70; Grëngewald's largest lead reached +17 (93-76). Even after Kian Wensveen Grou (19 pts) fouled out in the final quarter, the hosts managed the finish.
Urwald led all scorers with 31 points, powered by 12 free throws, eight two-pointers and one three. Captain Lex Bauer (20, 1.78m) added 18 (eight two-pointers), Wensveen Grou had 19 (seven free throws, six twos), while Yannick Peffer hit three triples for 9 and Pividor also scored 9, including a late three. For Hervé MarieRose's side, Hasic struck for 27 (13 two-pointers), Diedenhofen tallied 22 (eight twos, six free throws), Sandro Sanches Gomes Junior (21, PRT) had 11 and Mathis Alex Guiot 10.
