There was a good turnout again, this Saturday, October 29, 2022, at the Palio, for the meeting of the 3rd day of Pro B basketball. Boulazac Basket Dordogne lost to Vichy-Clermont, 76 to 79. Totally frustrating!
Boulazac, another ignition delay
As often, Boulazac Basket Dordogne got off to a bad start and had to chase after the score. He concludes the first quarter with a delay of 6 points. 12-18. The Auvergne artificer is already talking about him, Tray Boyd is talking about his skill, helped by a great performance from a former Boulazacois, Ivan February.
During the second quarter, Boulazac set the sights a little better. Slightly dominated in offensive rebounds, but very present in defensive rebounds, the Boulazacois are better as half-time approaches and slip into the locker room 5 points behind. 36-41.
Boulazac much better in the 2nd half
Boulazac Basket Dordogne ends up imposing its game, dictating the pace of the game and dominates Vichy-Clermont in the third quarter thanks to a good Nic Moore well helped by Travis Munnings. Junakovic goes there with his award-winning baskets. Boulazac won this penultimate quarter 22-15 and led 58-56.
In the last quarter, Boulazac made a gap of 8 points, at the very beginning, but his game crumbled and the visitors gained confidence, came back and even passed in front of the score. The money time just like the match will remain undecided. But it is Vichy-Clermont which has the last word and which imposes itself at the Palio. Total frustration among the men of Alexandre Ménard who will have to catch up on Friday in Antibes. Victory for Vichy Clermont at Boulazac 76-79.
