TOWNSVILLE 109 - Illawarra 97



Buoyed by imports Derek Rucker, who tallied a game-high 26 points, and Clarence Tyson, who charted 17 points and 13 boards, Townsville dusted off Illawarra. "We did not capitalise on Tyson's foul troubles," Illawarra coach Brendan Joyce said. "They stayed in the game while he was of the floor and when he returned he really hurt us."

Townsville: Rucker 26, De Ambrosis 23, Tyson 17, Mitchelhill 12, Kerle 10, Kruger 10, Cameron 8, Pennisi 2, Davidson 1.

Illawarra: Ritter 26, Zauner 14, Saville 13, Edwards 13, Cooks 11, Johnson 7, Campbell 7, Armfield 3, Macdonald 3.
