Niigata Albirex BB Rabbits, who had no white star in this regular season, won their first victory at home. In GAME1 with Aran Mare Akita held at the Agano City Suwon General Gymnasium, he won 82-69.

GAME2 lost 67-78, but was able to reach local fans in the final home game of the regular season.

Midori Kanazawa and Hana Nakamura scored 15 points, and Momona Miyasaka scored 14 points. It has been a difficult time with 20 consecutive losses since the opening, but I was able to win the final home game. Next week will be the last match of the season in Niigata.

On the other hand, Aran Mare Akita has finished the regular season this week. By winning GAME2, the final match was closed with a victory.

This season, it became the first new entrant team in 17 years and the only W league team in Tohoku. The result was 2 wins and 22 losses, but I would like to expect a further leap in how to connect the experience of the first stage to the second year.
