US Valenciennes Olympic 82 vs. TS Wisla Can-Pack 65

19.01.2005

It was reunion time in Valenciennes against Polish side Krakow as the EuroLeague Women champions welcomed back captain Audrey Sauret. Sauret has been unavailable for the entire 2004/2005 season after injuring her knee in the 2004 French league finals.

Although Sauret's statistical contribution to the game was relatively minimal (she scored 6 points and grabbed 5 rebounds in 19 minutes of action) her presence lifted her team-mates to an easy victory over the Polish visitors.

Krakow produced a respectable first half against the French giants, including a perfect 4/4 from three-point land in the second quarter which saw them trail by just 4 points at halftime, 44-40.

But there was to be no stopping USVO from winning their third consecutive EuroLeague Women contest.

Sandra Le Dréan led USVO with 17 points on 8/10 shooting, while Lucienne Berthieu added 15 points and 8 rebounds.
