T71 Dudelange controlled Racing Luxembourg 83-48 in M-U14 Division 1 (Phase 1), pulling away after a measured start. Racing opened with a 0-6 burst (baskets from Massard, Cuesta Jaramillo and Lamidiaux), but Alain Schaeffer's side steadied behind Ben Kloos and Finn Crelot to close the first quarter 18-13. The key stretch came late in the second: from 28-22, T71 strung together a decisive 12-0 run (multiple scores by Tun Jungers and Kloos, plus Crelot) to 38-22, reaching halftime at 40-24.
After the break, T71 kept pounding the paint. Kloos (16; Season PPG: 11.8), Pol Guedes (13; 9.6) and Charel Krings (12; 7.2) repeatedly finished inside, while Crelot (12; 8.2) added steady production. Bench contributions from Ben Stork (8) and Jungers (8) maintained the cushion. Racing's lone hit from deep came in the fourth quarter via Akseli Heikki Virkkunen (FIN, 12), but T71's two-point efficiency and constant pressure sealed it; the biggest lead was the final 35-point margin.
For Christian Frick's team, Alejandro Cuesta Jaramillo (RAC) led with 13, backed by Nikita Lamidiaux (11; Season PPG: 4.0) and Nicolas Breistroff (8; 6.67). Roby Sahr (RAC) added 7. Notable sequence: Ian Hulten picked up two quick personals in the second quarter (he finished with four), but no player fouled out.
In the table, T71 moves up to 2nd (+1), now 4-1 and riding a four-game winning streak. Racing remains 4th (2-3), their form alternating in recent outings.
