We are going to third game in both series.
Ramat-Hen 74 - Ramat-Hasharon 89
1 - 1 in the series. Rmat-Hen played great and led 59- 50 in the end of the 3rd quarter.
Karoleva, Voigt and young Balalis had wonderful night. Simone and Vicki weren't so good as the previous game, it seems like we Ramat-Hen is going to do history but then
suddenly they stopped playing. It was probably a combination of Tiredness and Ramat-Hasharon's upgraded defense that made the change. Ramat-Hasharon won the 4th quarter 39 - 15 and equaled the series.
