AB Contern C took control after a tight first quarter and beat Black Frogs Schieren C 77-44 in M-Division 3. The result lifted CONC five places to 4th at 1-1, while FROC remained 5th, also at 1-1.
The game was balanced early. Schieren briefly led 15-14 after Kevin John Gillen (22) converted twice from the line, but Contern closed the period with the last 4 points for an 18-15 edge. The key stretch came in the second quarter: after FROC cut the gap to 22-20, CONC finished the half on an 14-0 run to reach 36-20. That sequence carried into the restart, with Contern opening the third quarter 6-0 and extending the overall unanswered streak to 20 points, from 22-20 to 42-20.
Patrick Walravens (33, 1.88m) led Contern with 22 points and drove much of that separation. Jeff Besch (32) added 13, Michel Patrick Thein (24) scored 12, and Sébastien Hommel (29) contributed 9. Christian Harr (37) and Michel Kirsch (40) gave useful support, and CONC had nine scorers overall.
Schieren's main answers came from Gillen (22) with 11 points, Ricardo Miguel Peres Dias (36, PRT) with 9, and Max Rehlinger (32) with 8. Manuel Delgado Ferreira (42) added 7 and Max Charel Pol Heiderscheid (32) 6. FROC stayed more competitive in the opening minutes, but after halftime they could not slow Contern's inside-out scoring rhythm.
At 67-44, Schieren were still within 23, but Contern closed the game on a 10-0 run, which pushed the margin to its highest point at 33.
