27 years have passed since Hapoel Jerusalem won at Romema Hall, and tonight (Sunday) that changed when the Reds from the capital left the hall in Carmel with a 57:74 victory over Hapoel Haifa.

Jerusalem benefited from a wonderful game by Livai Randolph, who led the list of scorers for the Reds with 18 points, and also from a good game by young Noam Dovaret, who added 14 of his own.
Although the team from the capital is struggling so far on the offensive side of the field, they are showing a wonderful defensive game, with the victim on duty being Hapoel Haifa star Anthony Hickey, who was chosen as the outstanding player of the previous round with 20 points, but tonight was stopped in a scoreless game.

The host, on the other hand, wanted to register a home victory that would give her coach, Sharon Drucker, his 200th career victory as a coach in the Premier League, but succumbed to Randolph, in his best game of the season, and a dominant last quarter of the guests in which she managed to score only 5 points.
After the game, both teams will go to the team break.
The Jerusalemites will return to the courts in about two weeks and will host Upper Galilee, while Sharon Drucker's players will host Maccabi Tel Aviv in Rome in about a week and a half.
