This weekend, the Launaguet Basket Club, resident of Male Regional Seniors-Division 2-won ahead (78-72) Saint-Jory Basket on behalf of the 19th day of the championship.
After a 2-point victory in the first leg (57 to 55), the Launaguetois hoped again to defeat the neighbor Saint-Jory who still needs points to ensure his maintenance. Depending on the number of descents of Occitania clubs evolving at higher levels, it may be that 3 teams of regional 2 descend in regional 3. In front of a beautiful room, the locals started the match of the good end and led by 13 to 9 after 5 minutes of play. At the end of the 1st quarter, the Violets de Launaguet had 6 lengths ahead of their opponent (26 to 20). The Launaguetois returned better to the match than visitors.

The Launaguetois have released themselves in the last five minutes of the match but won despite everything (78 to 72). Note that the best Launaguétois marker was Louis Champlon with 18 achievements on the clock. On the evening of this 19th day of the championship, Launaguet has 53 %, or 10 victories for 9 defeats (6 in the standings). Patrick Kalubi Kayembe, coach of the Launaguet Basket Club was rather satisfied with the performance: “It is a great victory! I see that the team progressed … We were in control from the start of the game and then we sinned once again by the faults of our qualities: youth and lack of experience. We are a promoted team. We must continue to progress. Has three seriously injured, which has destabilized us a lot. Arnaud Gacongne, Saint-Jory Basket coach, put it into perspective: “We did not attack the match by the right end. We fell in front of a team that showed more desire and who deserves his victory”.
