Vipava storm early and see off Varaždin, 60-43
In a clear-cut result on Saturday in the LWB U15, Košarkarski klub Vipava - VIP outscored EcoNet Varaždin - VAR 60 to 43 at OŠ Draga Bajca Vipava. The game was decided by an early onslaught and steady control through the middle quarters, leaving Varaždin with a late recovery that came too late to alter the outcome.
The hosts set the tone immediately with a 19–5 first quarter, building a cushion through disciplined offense and strong rebounding. The second quarter tightened into a more even exchange (18–17), but Vipava preserved the margin and extended it through the third, after which the scoreboard read 50–30. Varaždin won the fourth period 13–8 as they mounted a late push, but the earlier deficit proved insurmountable.
The standout performer was Volk Lana, whose all-around night powered the winning side. She finished with 23 points on a blistering 11-of-16 shooting, pulled down 12 rebounds and posted an efficiency of 30. Her scoring came in bursts throughout the game — multiple two-point finishes and a timely three — and her presence on the boards controlled second-chance opportunities.
Support came from a balanced cast: Klančnik Tinkara contributed 10 points and 11 rebounds, anchoring the glass with four offensive boards; Purkat Tina added 8 points and 6 rebounds; and Rener Meta chipped in 7 points while knocking down a three and collecting nine rebounds. Those complementary efforts allowed Vipava to sustain leads and manage the clock when required.
On the opposing side, Budimir Dora led Varaždin with 12 points, including several late long-range strikes that kept her team within striking distance. Pevec Una Beata produced 11 points and seven rebounds in a dogged effort to rally her teammates, while Pavičić Klara and Cikač Sara provided valuable minutes and contributions on the glass. Despite flashes of perimeter scoring, Varaždin struggled to find consistent offense early and paid the price.
Tactically, the winning team earned its advantage by converting inside and corralling rebounds, particularly on the offensive end, which translated into easy points and hindered any sustained momentum swings. Varaždin’s late fourth-quarter scoring spurt showed character and promise for upcoming fixtures, but defensive lapses in the opening minutes were decisive.
The result seals a confident victory for Vipava in round 2 of the 2025/26 LWB U15 season, a game that showcased individual talent meshed with collective effort.
