For the first time since 2007, Belgium has punched its ticket to EuroBasket Women. Not only that, Belgium also won Group G by defeating Poland 77-61 in Wau0142brzych.
Mystics forward Emma Meesseman returned to form with 13 points, 6 rebounds, and 4 assists for the Belgians. Ann Wauters had a vintage performance with 16 points, 4 rebounds, and 5 assists, and Kim Mestdagh added 13 more points. For Poland, Aleksandra Pawlak led her team in scoring with 14 points.
For the most part, there isn’t much to add to what we mentioned last February when the Cats dominated Poland: they outshot them, raced to a comfortable double digit lead in the first half and never looked back.
