Amicale Steesel overpowered Les Sangliers Wooltz 104-78 in Steinsel, setting the tone from the tip. After an early 8-5 start and a timeout, Amicale closed the first period 28-19 behind the inside punch of 17-year-old captain Kathryn Jo Missavage (35, 1.80m) and the slashing of Lily Wittwer (27, 1.80m). Wooltz briefly answered in the second quarter to 36-25, but a timely three from Nina Bintz and a steady stream of paint scores sent Amicale to the locker room up 57-39.
Coach Paul Missavage's team broke the game open right after halftime with a 9-0 burst (Wittwer, Kendra Anaïs Vanessa Leveling and Missavage) to 70-42, then pushed the gap to a game-high +32 (100-68). Wooltz kept competing late and had the better of the closing stretch, but the margin remained decisive.
Amicale's production was well spread: Missavage dominated inside, Wittwer mixed drives with perimeter shots (including a key triple), Leveling (17, 1.80m, BEL) was a constant cutter, and Treyscha Boayue added 12. For Wooltz, Célia Abessolo Minane (32, CMR, 16 years) carried the offense with frequent trips to the rim and the line, Chiara Giorgio (16, ITA) contributed steady two-point scoring, and Lou Biver (12) and Mia Lieffrig (8, BEL) added outside threats. No major foul trouble altered the balance.
In the standings, Amicale jump to 1st (ranking gain +4), Wooltz sit 3rd (+1). Coaches Paul Missavage and Paul Biver both leaned on youth energy; Amicale's sustained runs and inside efficiency made the difference.
