In the only game held tonight (Sunday) in the Women’s Premier League, Hapoel Rishon Lezion defeated Elitzur Ramla 54:73. The Reds remained alone in first place in the table, at least until the game of Maccabi Haifa.
The first quarter was close, while in the second quarter the host increased its advantage. In the third quarter, Rishon Lezion ran away with a double-digit advantage, and the guest could not return. Jenny Sims led the winner with 34 points and 11 rebounds, while Dakia Cohen added 18 and 8 rebounds. Emma Canon’s 19 did not help Ramla, who are counting the fifth loss of the season, with only three wins.
Tomorrow there will be three more games in the eighth round, when Maccabi Haifa will host Maccabi Ashdod, Hapoel Petah Tikva Bnei Herzliya and Elitzur Holon will meet Elitzur Tel Aviv at home.
