Racing Luxembourg C ground out a 67-60 road win at Contern/central, overturning a 12-point secondhalf deficit with a dominant fourth quarter. Contern B led 19-12 after a strong start and still held 51-45 after three, thanks to the scoring of playercoach René Wolzfeld (Season PPG: 10.72). The hosts' largest gap came at 44-32 midway in the third, but Racing stayed in touch.
The game flipped early in the fourth: BAH and Gumy strung together a 6-0 burst to level at 51-51, prompting a Contern timeout. After Wolzfeld briefly restored a 53-51 edge, a key unsportsmanlike foul on Ben Goergen allowed Racing to seize momentum. The visitors pieced together a 10-2 run to push ahead 65-56, with Alexis Gumy scoring six points in a row in that spell. Contern never recovered.
Wolzfeld, the 34-year-old (1.92m, JICL), poured in 25 points (5 free throws, 7 two-pointers, 2 triples). He was backed by Yann Besch (11; Season PPG: 15.83) and Patrick Walravens (9; Season PPG: 12.38). Contern finished with 19 two-pointers and 4 threes, plus 10 made free throws.
Racing's balance told late: Miguel Llevenes Martinez (12; Season PPG: 15.17) and Gumy (34, CHE) had 11 each, matched by Drini Manjani (11; Season PPG: 11.25), while Sofiane Bah (10; Season PPG: 10.80) and Guido Mori (10; Season PPG: 10.00) added steady production. Racing hammered the interior (27 two-pointers, just one triple) and also hit 10 free throws. Despite an earlier U2 on Mathieu Delaplace in Q3, Racing kept control of the foul situation as Manjani navigated four personals without fouling out.
Coach Tom Muller's side extends its winning run to seven straight. Contern's own streak of seven wins is snapped. In the standings, Contern remain second (7-2), while Racing C move up to fourth (7-2).
