A full round of midweek games was played on Thursday, starting with Adut Bulgak and Maccabi Ramat Hen beating Elitzur Ramla 81-59 to keep them from pulling away from the rest of the top teams. Jillian Alleyne and Ashleigh Fontenette helped Elitzur Holon fend off Hapoel Petah Tikva 83-82 as the visitors leaned on their import trio of Khadijiah Cave, Monique Reid, and Alexis Peterson for the entire game, but came up short. Another exciting game saw Crystal Bradford and Tamera Young keep Herzliya in the hunt for the top half with an 83-75 win in overtime over Shae Kelley and Elitzur Holon. Teanna Muldrow and Bria Goss led Maccabi Raanana, which also hopes for a late surge as they beat Ramat Hasharon 82-63. Bnei Yehuda is still winless after losing to Danielle Adams, Victoria Vivians, and Maccabi Ashdod 89-71.
