Vipava overwhelm Orka in LWB U15 contest, 64-26
The scoreboard told a simple story: a disciplined, balanced attack and dominant rebounding lifted Košarkarski klub Vipava - VIP to a 64-26 victory over ŽKK Orka - ORK. From the opening whistle to the final buzzer, the visitors imposed their will, outscoring their opponents in every quarter and turning a competitive early phase into a one-sided finish.
The game opened with a flurry from Rener Meta, whose scoring touch kept Vipava in control. Rener Meta finished with 17 points on an efficient 5-of-7 shooting from the field (including 2-of-4 from three) and 5-of-6 from the free-throw line, an all-around performance that earned them player of the game honors.
Inside and on the glass, Volk Lana was the engine. She pulled down 14 rebounds (7 offensive, 7 defensive) and scored 10 points, providing second-chance opportunities and helping to tilt possession in Vipava’s favor. Complementing that presence were timely contributions from Klančnik Tinkara (7 points, including a late first-quarter triple) and Jež Žana, who finished with 6 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists — a true facilitator for the visitors’ balanced offense.
The scoring was balanced across the lineup. Pušnar Lara added 7 points on high-volume looks, while Mohorič Živa and Purkat Tina provided perimeter scoring that kept the pressure constant. Vipava’s depth showed up in the fourth quarter as the team stretched the margin, converting at the line and closing the game with a string of efficient possessions.
ŽKK Orka tried to rally through individual bursts. Ečimović Ani was active, finishing with 7 points and 6 rebounds, though she needed 14 field-goal attempts to get there. Marinković Vita Lucia hit 2-of-2 from the floor for 4 points and added three rebounds, and Juras Dora chipped in with 3 points and six rebounds. Those efforts, however, were not enough to counter Vipava’s combination of interior presence and outside shooting.
Quarter by quarter, the pattern was evident: Vipava led 12-6 after the first period, extended the advantage to 30-17 by halftime, and then pushed further in the third and fourth quarters (16 and 18 points respectively) to put the game out of reach. Turnovers and missed shots hampered Orka’s chances of mounting a comeback, while Vipava converted on free throws and offensive rebounds to maintain separation.
Statistically the visitors dominated the key metrics: efficient shooting from Rener Meta, a double-digit rebound total from Volk Lana, and a team approach that produced assists and high-percentage looks. For the defeated side, flashes of promise from players like Ečimović Ani and Marinković Vita Lucia offered building blocks, but consistency remains the challenge.
In short, this was a comprehensive performance by Košarkarski klub Vipava - VIP: disciplined offense, physical rebounding and contributions up and down the roster turned an early contest into a decisive victory.
