Black Frogs Schieren B controlled proceedings in Diekirch, winning 59-85 in the Championship round. The visitors set the tone early as Daniel Freichel (31, 1.90 m) scored the first baskets and had 6 of Schieren's opening points. BBC Dikrich briefly steadied to 6-6, then took a 12-11 lead before a decisive 9-0 Black Frogs burst flipped the quarter and opened a 15-24 margin.
The second period began with a three from André Do Patrocínio do Couto, and the visitors kept piling on with scoring from Max Brouscher and Charel Pol Goetzinger. Endrit Shala's early first-quarter timeout couldn't stem the tide long term; by halftime it was 23-44 after a 20-8 quarter. After the break, player-coach Bob Hirt's group accelerated again: Hirt and Freichel pushed it to 23-48, and Schieren stretched the gap to a highest lead of 36 (34-70) late in the third. Dikrich took the fourth 21-15, fueled by a 9-point personal flurry from captain Amar Sijaric, who also absorbed a technical in the third, but the deficit was too large.
Key numbers underline Schieren's dominance inside: 33 made two-pointers to Dikrich's 18 (+30 points in the paint area). Both sides hit three threes; Dikrich edged from the line (14 FTs to 10).
