Upper Group:
The round started on Monday with Adut Bulgak and Ramat Hasharon beating Herzliya 72-54. Alex Bentley helped Elitzur Holon keep Tiffany Mitchell and Elitzur Ramla from thinking that they would keep a big gap between them and the rest of the teams with a 66-64 win. A rare Tuesday game saw Danielle Adams lead Maccabi Ashdod to a 79-72 win over Hapoel Petah Tikva as their hopes of climbing to the top seed remain.

Lower Group:
Both games in this group were on Monday. Eden Rotberg and Ramat Hasaron beat Hapoel Ironi Rishon Lezion 79-77, but it may be too late to make up ground in the standings. Shayla Cooper was solid for Bnei Yehuda, but they remained winless as big games from Bria Goss and Teanna Muldrow lifted Maccabi Raanana to an 81-69 triumph.
