Telstar Hesperange controlled this M-Nationale 3 qualifying game from the opening minutes and won 100-41 at Black Frogs Schieren B. The league leader moved up to 3-0 with a third straight win and a gain of two places to first, while Schieren B remained winless after a third consecutive loss, despite also moving up two places to sixth.
Game evolution was one-sided very early. Telstar opened on a 7-0 run, forcing an early Schieren timeout, and still finished the first quarter ahead 23-9. Schieren briefly stayed in touch through Kevin Gillen (22) and Max Heiderscheid (32), but Telstar's inside-out balance kept stretching the margin. Lorenzo Ferrari (28, ITA) was already active in the first period, and Jamie Kappler (27) added steady scoring from the line and in transition.
The second quarter widened the gap further. Schieren got points from Max Brouscher (36, 1.93m) and Ricardo Miguel Peres Dias (36, PRT), but Telstar answered almost every home basket. Alessandro Belli (24, ITA) gave strong support off the bench, and the visitors went to halftime up 46-17.
The decisive stretch came just after the break. Tom Roden (26) scored five Telstar points in a row to lift the score from 46-17 to 52-17, and Schieren never recovered from that start. Brouscher kept producing, and captain Jerry Valente (32) also scored in the third, but Ferrari's three-point shooting and Telstar's depth maintained full control at 73-32 after three quarters.
Telstar kept its rhythm in the last period and reached its highest lead at the final buzzer, +59. Seven Telstar players scored at least 8 points. Ferrari led with 17, Kappler had 15, Roden 14, Max Klepper (34) and Belli 12 each, while Juan Joyner Lopes da Costa dos S. added 10. For Schieren, Brouscher carried the offense with 17, Gillen added 8, and Valente finished with 7. Schieren also had a difficult foul sequence, with Janssen Liu receiving a flagrant foul late in the first quarter and Valente a technical early in the third.
