First win for Lau White in provincial b'ball

LAU White recorded its first win during the Kavatoks-sponsored Raiwaqa Basketball Provincial League at Ed's Courts yesterday.

Laced with former reps such as Laisiasa Puamau and Eroni Cinavilakeba, Lau White overcame the odds to beat West 46-27 in its third league game.

Last week, the side lost to Lomaiviti and Kadavu.

In the women's division, Tailevu lost 25-47 to Kadavu.

Tailevu could not find its rhythm despite playing with the services of upcoming youngster Tiyana Kainamoli.

The St Joseph's Secondary School student tried her best but the experience of Kadavu players kept her at bay until the fourth quarter.

In other games yesterday, Kadavu beat Tailevu Green 31-26 while CBM continued its fairytale campaign with a one-point victory over Tailevu Yellow 40-39.

Results: Lomaiviti 33 West 40 (W); West 27 Lau White 46 (M); Kadavu 31 Tailevu Green 26 (M); Tailevu 25 Kadavu 47 (W); CBM 40 Tailevu Yellow 39 (M)
