THE INFAMOUS FOOT INCIDENT
This match goes down in LTU infamy for LTU's final minute of mayhem that not only coughed up the lead but also saw Sturrock drop the ball on to his foot thus handing possession to Maccabi for a final shot at a win. History shows that Tauber-Lewis grabbed the inbounds pass and walked into an open basket for the Maccabi win.

LAST WEEK:
Warragul 104 d LTU 80
The Eagles were given a lesson in finals basketball at the hands of minor premiers, Warragul, in Drouin. In a game that struggled to provide many positives fans can be rest assured of 2 things. The Eagles can not play any worse than they did. Secondly, the Eagles were embarrassed and have vowed that the season will not end tonight.

Maccabi 97 d Monash Uni 96
The Warriors hit paydirt against the more fancied opponent. The never say die Maccabi attitude kept them in good stead and they were able to advance 1 step further.
