Les Sangliers Wooltz overpowered Kordall Steelers 76-26 in W-U19 Division 2 Phase 1 at Niederkuer. After a brief 2-2 start, the visitors broke the game open with a 17-3 burst to close the first quarter 19-5. Kordall's early timeout could not shift momentum, and SAN methodically extended the gap to 38-12 at halftime, with Chiara Giorgio (14, ITA) repeatedly finding the rim in the second period.
The third quarter decided it. SAN came out with an 11-0 run to 49-12, driven by the relentless C. Abessolo Minane (16, CMR), who piled up points with a mix of inside finishes and free throws. Emma Kazic (15, FRA) briefly halted the slide with KDS's lone three, but the quarter still went 20-6 for the visitors. In the fourth, SAN stayed in control; Lou Biver (SAN) added a late three and the margin peaked at 50 at the buzzer.
Balance was a hallmark for SAN: Abessolo Minane led with 26, Giorgio added 14, Lena Hodzic (16) 12, Biver 11 and Lou-Andra Foutey Fonkam 10 five players in double figures. For Kordall, Kazic's 7 included the team's only triple, Tyana Amou (KDS) scored 6, and Alessia Joanna Nouemsi (16, ITA) had 5, including an and-1 in the third. Ingrid Bayart picked up two quick fouls early in the third, hampering KDS's attempts to build any run.
Coach Paul Biver rotated effectively to keep the tempo and scoring spread, while Julie Secco's timeouts early in each half sought to stem SAN's spurts. SAN moves up to 3rd (2-2, +1), continuing their alternating sequence (loss, win, loss, win). KDS remains 5th at 0-4, still searching for a first win after four straight losses.
