Krka Cruise to Convincing Win in LWB Senior Opener

In a one-sided opening-round encounter of the LWB Senior season on 29 November 2025 at VI. OŠ Varaždin, ŽKK Krka ran past EcoNet Varaždin 77-41. The visitors established control early and never looked back, turning a strong first quarter into a commanding lead at halftime and closing out the game with a balanced, efficient attack.

The game’s early momentum swung decisively in the visiting side’s favour, a 22-10 first quarter setting the tone. By halftime the margin had stretched to 43-25, and a dominant third quarter (21 points) pushed the score to 64-35 heading into the final period. Krka sealed the result with another steady quarter, finishing 77-41.

Leading the way was Černe Daša, named player of the game after a steady performance: 13 points on 6-of-11 shooting and 6 rebounds, finishing with a game efficiency of 13. Her work inside and on the glass was an engine for Krka’s offense.

Support came from several contributors. Dajčman Teja added 10 points and 6 rebounds and hit a key triple in the first half that helped build the early cushion. Kristan Ema provided perimeter fire, going 3-of-4 from long range on her way to 11 points. Big boards were supplied by Đapa Tia, who collected 10 rebounds alongside 5 points. The rotation also featured efficient outings from Ercegovčević Maša (8 points) and Učakar Uma (7 points, including a three), giving Krka a multi-pronged offensive threat that EcoNet struggled to contain.

On the other side, EcoNet had bright spots in Lukić Ivona, who finished with 12 points and 7 rebounds, and Božović Pavla, who converted 5 free throws en route to 9 points. Novak Elena chipped in 6 points and helped keep possession pressure alive at times. Despite these individual efforts, EcoNet could not find a consistent answer to Krka’s balanced scoring and activity on the glass.

Tactically, Krka mixed inside scoring with timely outside shots and controlled the boards — a combination that prevented any sustained comeback. EcoNet showed moments of resilience, particularly in second-quarter scoring bursts, but turnovers and missed opportunities from distance proved costly as the visitors stretched the lead in the second and third quarters.

In sum, the match was a statement of depth and discipline from ŽKK Krka in the season’s first round: efficient scoring, collective rebounding and a spread of contributors that made defensive assignments difficult. EcoNet will look to regroup, shore up perimeter defense and convert more chances at the free-throw line as they move forward.
