Racing Luxembourg B overpowered Gréngewald Hueschtert B 76-61 in Oberanven, turning a tight opening into a one-sided middle stretch. GREB edged the first quarter 17-15, but the game swung decisively right after the break between periods: RACB strung together a 15-0 run to flip 17-15 into 17-30. That burst featured a mix of shot-making from the arc and inside, with Xavier Engel and Yves Le Sayec repeatedly finding gaps. Coach Pit Schneider's side won the second quarter 28-11 and never looked back, peaking at a 28-point lead (45-73) early in the fourth.
Game flow stayed in RACB's hands after halftime. Early in Q3, Marc Pfeiffenschneider put up five points in a row (3+2) to keep the cushion near 20, and Engel added a seven-point flurry in the same period. GREB rallied late Lex Bauer hit 3, 2 and 1 in quick succession, Luca Pividor buried a three and Yannick Peffer added another but by then the gap was too wide.
For GREB, the top locals were Pividor (20; Season PPG: 13.0) and Bauer (14; Season PPG: 12.17), with Mika Demuth (10; Season PPG: 15.33) and Yannick Peffer (10; Season PPG: 7.33) chipping in. Young center Robyn Schumacher (18, 1.99m) added 7 inside.
RACB's headline scorers were Le Sayec (14; Season PPG: 8.6) with three triples and three free throws, and Engel (14; Season PPG: 16.43). Support came from Pfeiffenschneider (RACB) with 11, and Wander Nicolas Silvestre Marquez (31, DOM) with 10. Veteran captain François Aulner (42) set the tone early with the game's first basket, and Mathieu Gillardin (2.05m) provided key second-quarter points.
RACB stay perfect (7-0) and climb two spots to 1st in M-Division 1, extending their winning streak to seven. GREB drop to 2-5 and 9th after seeing a brief late push fall short under Coach Ricky Easterling.
