Saturday ProBuild Lions hosts STOL Grasshoppers. Until now the Grasshoppers posted just one win, while Probuild suffered just one loss. Oddly, we're talking about the same game, on January 16th in Katwijk, when the Grasshoppers beat the Lions 87-82.

The game got kind of physical, with Molly McDowell smacking on the floor getting her wrist broken.

Are the Lions planning to take revenge beating Grasshoppers by 100 points or so? "No", coach Laki Lakner said. "It's not a special game to us. Winning by one point is enough."

The Lions will have to do without forward Karen Heinen, who is still suffering from her head injury.

Game starts at 7:30 PM CET.

Molly McDowell scored 19 points and Kati Harty had 18 as ProBuild Lions posted its second win in four days over Wereldticktes Leiderdorp, 60-79.

Anouk Biesters contributed 12 points, showing that she is making good progress in coming back to her former level.

Jasmijn Overbeeke chipped in with 10 points and 8 rebounds.

Judy Wright scored 20 for Wereldtickets and Bridget Yoerger had 16.

Coach Laki Lakner said he saw his team displaying another night of solid defense. “Like on Wednesday, that was the key. We kept them on just 60 points, which is good. We had a slow start again, like before this season. We are working on it, but the cause is difficult to determine.”

Coach Lakner said he particularly liked how Anouk Biesters fitted in. “She’s really playing well, given the fact she was out for a year. It’s beyond my expectations.”

Leiderdorp led 15-7 with 50 seconds to go in the first period, but after a time-out of coach Lakner Katy Harty made a basket and Molly McDowell hit two shots, including a 3-pointer, to make it 15-14.

In the second quarter the Lions took a 21-31 but saw it melt away to 26-31 at intermission.

Right after the break Judy Wright and Willemijn Callenberg hit 3-pointers for Leiderdorp to change the lead, 32-31, but the Lions made a 0-7 run to regain it for good, 32-38.

At the end of the quarter Kati Harty scored 5 straight points to put ProBuild up 42-56.

In the last period Werteldtickets cut the margin to ten points again, 52-62, but that was as far as the Lions let it go. Marie Hoogstraten nailed two 3-pointers to help ProBuild cruise to a lopsided 60-79 victory over the third ranked team in the competition.
