Resident of Pré-Nationale, CJM Bourges logically defeated BC Mehun (104-48), this Saturday evening at the Prado, to win the Cher senior women’s Cup.
The objective of the Mehunoises was clear, “to have fun” according to their president Nathalie Pereira, and to try to maintain their lead of twenty points (for the benefit of the two levels of difference) for as long as possible. The finalists of the 2023 edition achieved this for fifteen minutes, thanks in particular to Labarre’s 12 points in the first half. And we had to wait for a free throw from Morio to see Bourges take the advantage (37-36, 15th).
The CJMB recovers the trophy
“The objective was to hold on for a half, the girls did it,” underlined Nadège Antoine, the BCM coach. Afterwards, we knew it would be complicated, if not impossible. But the girls keep smiling, it was a bonus match. »
If the gap remained measured at the break (48-39), the third quarter was one-way. The CJMB was dominant in all areas of the game, with Cuissot’s aggressiveness towards the circle, Jeay’s size and Girardel’s outside skill (six three-point baskets to his credit). Result, Bourges made a card in ten minutes (32-1). The last quarter was anecdotal or almost, and CJM Bourges returned to victory in the Coupe du Cher (104-48) after leaving the trophy to CSB last season.
Bourges Basket will be able to count on a physical trainer for its professional team
“Mehun fought well, with his weapons. As soon as we managed to defend as we usually do, we were able to advance. I’m really happy to end the season this way,” concluded Grégory Richard, the Berruyer coach, who will still be on the CJMB bench next year.
