The Wolfs team, which has lost both games so far, added an important component to the teams roster as M. Chlynin became the team’s coach.According to the coach, even though the team only had a couple of training sessions together, they managed to adjust their game a little and this should show during the match.

However, the tactics chosen by Wolfs to actively pressure the opponents from the beginning of the match did not work. Players picked up personal fouls faster than points, and Meru easily opened the gap by scoring easy points from the free throw line to take a 27-14 lead after the first quarter. In the second quarter Wolfs players managed to move the ball better and score easier, but they had no success defending against the fast and accurate attacks of Meru. As a result, Ipswich representatives had a confident lead of 53:36 at halftime. 

In the second half of the game, Wolfs still tried to catch up with the score but with only five players remaining, Meru was able to respond to the effective attacks of their opponents and celebrated a victory with the result of 101:79.

Interviewed after the match, Wolfs player D. Jevsejevas said that the team will not give up and will continue to work hard during practices and improve the game. Meanwhile, Meru’s representative M. Eidrigevičius said that injuries and illnesses keep preventing the team from gathering a full lineup, but he promised a stronger team lineup for the next match against the Dragons.

E. Kriūnas scored 31 points for the winners, M. Kandrotas and A. Maziliauskas added 29 and 25 points respectively. H. Petrauskas scored 19 points and D. Jevsejevas added 18 points for Wolfs.
