Hapoel Eilat took the bottom game of the season.
The Southerners achieved an impressive 74:85 victory over Hapoel Galil/Aliyon this evening (Monday) in a matchup between the two brackets of the table.
Bottom line, Eilat wins for the first time after nine losses and three months.
Both teams came into the game deep at the bottom and with 3 wins each.
The Hailite victory has a double meaning: the team from the south with a double victory over their opponent after they also won in Gan Ner and this means that in any tie this season between the teams they will be ahead of Gilboa.
For Eilat, this is a debut victory for coach Maurizio Buscaglia, in his fifth game with the team.
Gilboa with Ariel Beit Halami (who resigned this season from Eilat), locks the table and has become the main candidate for relegation.
She went into the half with a lead, but her second half in which she scored 31 points was very weak.

In Eilat (debut for point guard Austin Tillman) Eric Griffin stood out with 24 points.
Center Manjuk Matiang pulled down 19 rebounds.
In Gilboa, Tony Kater excelled with 21 points and Robert Franks with 20 of his own.
Nothing has changed
Hapoel Be'er Sheva/Dimona returned from the break with an important home victory 73:89 in the shell hall over Bnei Herzliya, with the help of a wonderful game by Kalil Ahmed who led the list of scorers for the host with 18 points.
Throughout its years in the top league, the team from the capital of the Negev won 8 of its 9 home games against the team from Sharon, and tonight the story of the game was no different.
The Reds opened the game with a 2:12 advantage, received a great contribution from Netta Segal, Kalil Ahmed, Tidjan Keita and Ben Mor, and continued to increase the difference in the second half, reaching 20 points in the last quarter, on the way to an important home victory.

Chris Babb, who recovered from an injury and returned to the courts after about a month, played 14 minutes and contributed 10 points, but was unable to help his team, which moved away from a place in the top house at the end of the regular season.
