Amicale Steesel B stayed 4th in M-U14 Division 5 Phase 1, while AB Contern B remained 6th. Oliver Barth's team is now on a two-game winning run after opening the season with three losses, whereas Contern has dropped five in a row.
The game was under control very early. After a 2-2 start, AMIB accelerated through captain Lex Diederich (Season PPG: 15.71) and Louis Kohn (12). From 10-4, Steesel produced an 18-0 run to close the first quarter at 30-6. That first break already set the tone.
Contern had some resistance in the second period, mainly through Luca Muller (11) and Lukas Vilchez (Season PPG: 2.00). Vilchez and Andy Paulus (12) scored inside, but Steesel kept adding points in waves. Diederich continued to finish, Rohan Tolentino (12) brought efficient support, and Maxime Hengen (13) added four points late in the half for a 50-14 margin.
The third quarter briefly opened with Contern baskets from Muller and Batu Uysal (13), but AMIB answered again. From 54-20, the home side closed the period on an 18-0 run, with Kohn and Curtis Hostert (12) joining Diederich in the scoring. Hostert also converted twice around that stretch. One small detail of the flow: Enzo Leong (Season PPG: 2.00) committed two fouls in succession in the second quarter.
The fourth quarter brought another decisive burst, this time 14 unanswered points from 72-20 to 86-20. Diederich dominated the last period as well and finished with 46 points, far above his season average. Kohn added 24 in only his second game of the competition. Tolentino scored 11 and Hostert 10.
For Contern, Muller was the main scorer with 14, ahead of Vilchez with 6, while Paulus added 4. The highest lead reached 75 points at the end, 105-30.
