Raanana Hertzeliya 69 – Anda Ramat Hasharon 60
Ramat Hasharon's first field goal, a 3 by Liron Cohen, came with 2 minutes left in the first quarter. Raanana Hertzeliya started the game on an 8-3 run with a 3 by Tasha Butts and 5 points from Michelle Campbell, but soon enough they also got into a drought. Cohen's 3 made it 10-11, she scored 8 in the quarter. Jennifer Fleischer gave Ramat Hasharon its first lead at 15-14 but La'Tangela Atkinson with a nice move inside over Fleischer put Raanana Hertzeliya up 1 at the end of the quarter.
Deanna Jackson, still jetlagged, got her first basket of the day in the 2nd quarter but both teams looked out of sync. Raanana Hertzeliya scored six straight on fastbreaks to take a 26-19 lead. Dana Boonen and Limor Mizrachi got their first field goals and helped cut the lead to two but Raanana Hertzeliya made 6 of 6 free throws and led 34-28 at the half.
Boonen, after a quiet first half, scored eight points in the first five minutes of the 3rd and Ramat Hasharon got within 2 points. Butts and Ortal Oren with threes and Atkinson with a put back wouldn't let the lead slip away. Chen Nusel, who was getting to the line with drives in the first half, kept penetrating and her two baskets made it 48-39. She hit a 3 in the final seconds to set the quarter score at 52-48, after Cohen and Fleischer made it close again.
Oren's steal and layup along with Ornit Shwartz' three gave Raanana Hertzeliya a 57-48 lead. Raanana Hertzeliya then started to turn it over too much and couldn't finish inside, and Ramat Hasharon went on a 12-0 run to take a 60-57 lead with 4 minutes left. Oren with a big rebound and two free throws, and another free throw after that, tied the score. It was Ramat Hasharon's turn to turn it over every time down and Atkinson with an easy basket in the set game and a free throw gave Raanana Hertzeliya the lead back. Nusel's 3 closed the deal.
