Gala match on Saturday evening with the ASPTT Caen – Caen Hérouville derby. The first leg had seen, after an uncompromising crossover, Caen Hérouville win the duel in the very last minute with a score of 77 to 73. of their piece by winning by plus 4 (73 to 69)!
Bayeux, still short of manpower, nevertheless, without difficulty, did the job against a team from Barjouville that was definitely weighed down at the bottom of the ranking.
A little hats off to the Caen Nord team which traveled to Trappes, a solid runner-up team from Levallois. An 18-point loss, given the context, is a small performance.
ASPTT Caen 73 – 69 Union Caen Hérouville: perfect equality
It is the answer of the shepherd to the shepherdess! The same pattern as in the first leg is repeated for the two Caen clubs who therefore leave back to back with a match won on each side and a gap of 4 points. If the postal workers were above all animated by a spirit of revenge, Caen Hérouville would have left with the point of victory especially to put themselves definitively in the shelter of relegation. The players of Alhou N’diaye played their match thoroughly, there was no question of distorting the championship! Note that by 3 technical faults to 2, it is also the PTT who win.
Word from the coaches:
Alhou N’Diaye, ASPTT Caen : “We won, it’s great but we could have done better. We took the game very quickly on our own and were 10 points ahead at the end of the first quarter. Then, we derail a little, we do not offer a beautiful game, far from it. At halftime, we only lead by 4 points. The third period is catastrophic. We collect 27 points. Caen Hérouville picked up the score to finally come back in front at the start of the fourth (+6). The score stays that way for a long time. It’s only five minutes from the end that we come back into the game and we go ahead. Unlike the first leg, we had control of the game on the important actions and managed the end of the match well. »

Bayeux 96 – 65 Barjouville: quiet Bayeux
The score speaks for itself, no suspense on Saturday evening in Bayeux by receiving Barjouville who, sure of being demoted, presented himself to six players and ended his season as best he could.
Coach’s word
Gilles Baillet, Bayeux: “We didn’t know what awaited us because Barjouville never fielded the same players. For them, the season is folded and some players do not make the effort to move. On our side, still penalized by injuries, we could only present 8 players.
In the end, there was never really a match. We started the match on a false rhythm and with a lot of absence in defense but with some adjustments, we quickly gained the upper hand over our opponent. This easy match will have allowed Lucas and Robin to find playing time after their injury. We also consolidate our fifth place with two victories ahead of the sixth. Next week will be a completely different context. Trappes, in his room, will be very keen to take revenge on the first leg (84-77). With this defeat, they had definitely put a cross on their chance to go up. »

Trappes 91 – 73 Caen North: Caen North to La Trappes
Complicated trip to Trappes, second in the ranking, for a Caen Nord Basket already fixed on its fate for the next season. It is mathematically irrevocable, the team will regain the regional championship. This did not prevent Sandra Dijon’s players from fully playing their match. Conceding a defeat of only 18 points against a team that regularly leaves their opponents over 30 is a feat to be saluted.
Coach’s word
Sandra Dijon, Caen North: “Despite the defeat and our start at six to face the second in the championship, the match was rather interesting. Some players were able to express themselves and show themselves with a very good performance from Evan Bellery (27 points), taking responsibility from Léo Dupont-Lamotte. Only downside for the team, the departure of Nicolas Goueslain who leaves the club for his studies. We have five days left before the end of this very difficult and complicated championship for the whole group, staff, players and managers. »
