In a clash of the undefeated teams, depleted FoxTown Cantu overcame the absence of its leading scorer Pietro Aradori, leading from start to finish en route to a comfortable 83-58 win over Telenet Ostend on Wednesday. Win improves Cantu to 3-0 atop of Group A, while Ostend drops to 2-1 in a share of the second place. Cantu stormed out of the gate, hitting 5 triples and using a 14-1 run to build 32-11 lead after the first quarter, and the hosts never looked back. Michael Jenkins paced the winners with 22 points, going 6 of 9 behind the arc. Joe Ragland scored 19 and dished 8 assists, Adrian Uter had 12 points plus 7 rebounds, while Stefano Gentile added 10 in victory. For the visitors, Andrija Stipanovic collected 11 points plus 10 rebounds, Ryan Thompson scored 9, and Quentin Serron 8 points in defeat.

Ragland started things for the host with a triple on the first possession. Jenkins and Marco Cusin worked inside, before back -to-back three-pointers from Jenkins and Ragland made it 13-5. Jared Berggren scored those buckets for Ostend, and was its lone scorer in the first 6 minutes of encounter, and Cantu made a use of the visitors' futility. Jenkins hit another triple, sparking a 14-1 run that also had Ragland make couple of layups, and Gentile scoring a basket-plus-foul, helping Cantu to 27-8. With Gentile's triple and Awudu Abass' layup, the hosts made it 32-11 after 10 minutes. More triples from Ragland and Jenkins extended the lead that was as big as 41-17, but Niels Marnegrave got Ostend's offense rolling midway through the second quarter. With triples from Thompson and Veselin Petrovic, and put-backs from Serron and Stipanovic, Ostende cut it to 48-34 at halftime. After the break, Serron and Stipanovic got the visitors within 49-40, but Jenkins answered from close range and long range to get Cantu back into a safe zone. Marcel Jones added a dunk as margin reached 58-42 and Cantu never looked back. Uter extended it to 66-47 at the start of the fourth quarter, and after a triple from Pierre Antoine Gillet, Genitle started a 9-0 run capped with a triple for Jenkins for 77-51, and the hosts cruised the rest of the way.

FoxTown Cantu

"This victory is very important, because we played against a well prepared team. We started with a strong approach and made some extreme defensive choices, leaving space to their players' shots. In the first period, we managed to have very high shot-percentage, thanks to our great desire for victory. Apart from the third period, during which Ostend managed to be more competitive, we have always been the leaders of the match. This success comes in a particular moment, because even without Pietro Aradori, we managed to be a strong and concrete team."

GJERGJA, DARIO

Telenet Ostend

"First of all, I would like to congratulate Cantu for this victory. They played a very good game, especially in the first and the last quarter. We should learn from Cantu how to be aggressive and intensive, because they had 25 points of advantage but kept making pressure, and this is the way a game should be played. We must learn how to defend as a team, and avoid making so many mistakes. We have got many young players who must grow up quickly and responsibly face two games a week."
