Amicale Steesel overpowered Résidence Walferdange in the WCoupe Cadettes 1/8 finales, 12150, seizing control from the opening tip. The visitors opened on a 120 run and closed the first quarter up 345, then extended the gap to 6816 by halftime. Any hope of a comeback was quickly denied as Amicale kept piling on in the third and fourth quarters, reaching the night's largest lead at the buzzer.
Two scorers set the tone for Amicale. Lily Wittwer (17, 1.80m) delivered 38 points, mixing drives, two early threes and steady free throws, with a decisive scoring burst in the second quarter. Kathryn Jo Missavage (17, 1.80m) added 32, including backtoback baskets late in the first period and a three to close that quarter. Treyscha Boayue (15) contributed 21, while Zoë Quinn (18, DEU) chipped in 16 despite foul trouble (4 fouls).
Amicale's offensive profile was emphatic: 48 makes from two, 4 from three and 13 free throws. The bench supported the starters efficiently, with Nina Bintz (7), Daniela Elena Ndjomo (4) and Turnelo Emma Kabamba (2) all on the board. A secondquarter technical to Alessia Blum did not alter the momentum.
For RES, Jill Stoltz (14) fought throughout and led all home scorers with 27 points, built on 6 twopointers, 2 threes and 9 free throws. Milena Meyer (6) and Akeksandra Tokareva (5) added outside touch, while Ella Dentzer and Isabel Pizzutto scored 4 apiece. Résidence found some rhythm after the break, notably through Stoltz's scoring and a pair of triples in the final period, but the gap remained substantial.
Coach Paul Missavage's side managed the game's evolution with authority, sustaining pressure in each quarter. Coach Filip Dukic's young RES group kept competing, yet the visitors' early surge and relentless twopoint production decided the tie long before the final horn.
