Racing Luxembourg D controlled Amicale Steesel B from the opening tip at tramsschap/central, starting on a 16-0 burst and closing the first quarter 25-5. Coach André Pesch's side kept its foot down in the second period (37-14) to reach 62-19 at the break, then put together a rare third-quarter shutout (9-0) to make it 71-19 before managing minutes in the last stanza. The largest gap peaked at +60 (81-21). Amicale's late response came in the fourth, notably through Quentin Jean Jack Leveque (34, FRA), who poured 10 points in the period and finished with 16, while veteran Claus Cramon Houmann (50, DNK) added 5.
For Racing, captain Ander Pesch (Season PPG: 2.33) delivered a season-high 20, hitting three times from deep across the night and steering two game-timeouts in the second quarter into sustained runs. Around him, the team's other contributors kept the scoreboard moving: Jorge Montero (Season PPG: 10.40) had 18, Elele Marc Andre Akpeubi (25, CIV; Season PPG: 5.71) worked efficiently inside for 15, Alexis Gumy (RACD) scored 12, and Mattia Coghetto (RACD) chipped in 11.
Within Racing's club core, Pesch led the line, with support from Laurynas Bagdonas (Season PPG: 2.50) and Zachary Dawson (RACD), who navigated two quick first-quarter fouls without derailing the rhythm. For Amicale, Cliff Konrath (Season PPG: 4.00) added 7 and Tom Rech, the captain, battled through three fouls.
In the standings, Racing consolidates second place, while Amicale slips to fifth (-2). Form-wise, Racing has now taken back-to-back wins; Amicale is on a three-game skid. Coach Tom Rech's team briefly sparked when Leveque hit consecutive long-range shots in the fourth, but the earlier third-quarter drought left no path back.
