Arantia Larochette overpowered T71 Dudelange B 90-37 in the W-U14 Division 2 Phase 2 at grimler/terrain1, controlling all four quarters and stretching the lead to a game-high 53 at the buzzer. Coach Pedro Nunes Jordão's team set the tone early, closing the first period on a 6-0 run for 26-10. They then opened the second quarter with an 8-0 burst six straight points by Emma Brunetti (13) to make it 34-10, and cruised to a 47-20 halftime advantage.
The third quarter brought another decisive sequence: after T71 briefly cut it to 28-57, Arantia strung together a 10-0 run fueled by Michele Elsen's three quick baskets, pushing it to 28-67 and effectively sealing the game. Coach Yves Winandy tried to stem the momentum with time-outs in the 7th minute of Q1, the 6th minute of Q2 and the 8th minute of Q4, but Arantia's pace and consistency never dipped.
Emma Brunetti led all scorers with 31 points, pouring in 23 before the break and scoring in waves across all quarters. Support came from Mayara Dos Reis Cruz (12), plus double-digit contributions by Jana Agnes (10) and Michele Elsen (10), with Mathilda Wurth and Amélie Kirch adding steady inside finishes.
For T71, Dalila Adrovic (12, MNE) stood out with 20 points matching her season high and carried the offense with early baskets and third-quarter free throws. Contributions from Belma Dzogovic (3), Hana Skrijelj (3), Eva Dilara Gambarini (4) and others couldn't alter the trajectory as Arantia kept stringing stops into transition points.
Arantia sits atop Phase 2 at 4-0 and is on a four-game winning streak. T71 drops to 0-3 in Phase 2 (5 straight losses overall) and remains 5th in the classification.
