ASPTT Périgueux wins a disputed women’s derby

Three derbies were announced in Regional 3 on Sunday October 13. The most anticipated was the one between the girls of ASPTT Périgueux and those of Lardin, in their group B. The two teams presented the same balance sheet (one victory and one defeat) and the public which came in large numbers to the gymnasium Céline-Dumerc from Coulounieix-Chamiers did not waste her afternoon.

Maxime Berthelot, for the ASPTT, warned: “We are coming off a defeat in Limoges and we are keen to make up for it. » Her players heard it and, driven by an untenable Carla Tauziac in the first period, got off to a better start (8-0).

The Lardinoises gradually got their heads out of the water to pick up the score (14-8). But the ASPTT toughened its defense even more and nothing was easy for Le Lardin. Especially since Tauziac was feeling hot again before the end of the first quarter (25-10). But the visitors did not give up and came back little by little, grabbing offensive rebounds and causing turnovers (33-30).

AOL wins again

ASPTT finished the first period better (40-32). The second was just as committed and the locals kept this gap at the final whistle (76-66). Enough to satisfy Maxime Berthelot. “We held the match from start to finish by imposing our game, which bodes well for the rest of the championship. »

On the boys’ side, Bergerac dominates AOL B (81-56) with 20 points from Rocco and Saint-Front-de-Pradoux wins at Razac (68-75). Boulazac/Sanilhac B, who received a big piece, Limoges Saint-Antoine, lost (64-71).

In the Prenational, AOL Périgueux confirmed its good start to the season with a third victory in four matches against Artigues (79-73). In Regional 2, after a first reassuring away victory, Eyzerac lost to Brive, one of the favorites for the climb (62-79). The victory of Boulazac/Sanilhac away to Oradour (77-59) allows the team to remain at the top of the table.
