YMY snaps 25-game losing streak

YMY didn't want its losing streak to extend to another season and picked tonight to end it. Lo Shin-liang and Chang Yu-lin scored 21 points apiece as YMY lead from start to finish and beat ETSN 91-72, putting its 25-game losing streak to an end.

After a 111-day wait, YMY got its third win of the season in the next-to-last game. Still, the losing streak ranks as the longest losing streak record in SBL history.

Already out of the playoffs, Videoland didn't give up either. The Hunters pulled out a 14-0 run in the 28-18 4th quarter to beat Dacin 88-77.

Yang Che-yi and Lee Chi-yi combined for 52 points for the winner, while Tien Lei had 29 points and 17 rebounds in the losing effort.
