League leaders Amicale Steesel controlled the decisive stretches of this W-U19 Division 2 Phase finale game and beat Etzella Ettelbruck 92-48, staying unbeaten at 4-0 and extending their winning run to five games. Etzella, now fourth after gaining one place, dropped to 1-3.
The game was still competitive through most of the first half. Amicale led early through Lily Wittwer and Kathryn Jo Missavage, but Etzella answered well with Catharina Schonckert and Selma Jung. After the opening period, the home side was in front 25-16. In the second quarter, Jung hit consecutive threes and Etzella cut the gap to 33-27, which was an important moment because the visitors were still within reach.
Coach Paul Missavage's team then took over. Amicale closed the half more firmly and came out of the break with a 9-0 run to move to 53-31. The game was effectively broken open later in the third period, when Steesel produced a 17-0 run from 63-39 to 80-39. The highest lead reached 44 points.
Wittwer (Season PPG: 23.69) was the main difference-maker with 35 points, including 23 in the third quarter alone. Missavage (Season PPG: 26.00) added 22, while the 16-year-old 1.80m Belgian Kendra Leveling scored 10 and Treyscha Boayue (Season PPG: 15.58) finished with 12. For Etzella, Jung (Season PPG: 7.82) had 15 with five 3-pointers, Schonckert (Season PPG: 7.18) added 12, and Celina Santos (Season PPG: 7.67) scored 9.
