With the Region I crown already wrapped up, the defending DODDS-Europe Division II champions used their final two games to get set for another title run.

Running full steam ahead from the momentum of a split last week with Division I Lakenheath, SHAPE plowed into Friday’s game ready to win.

Gina Rhett chimed in with 23 points, 15 assists, 12 steals and six rebounds between both games.

Bitburg’s Brianna Lackey scored a total of 23 points, followed by Michelle Morrison with 18 for the weekend.

Lakenheath 69, Menwith Hill 21: After splitting games last week with SHAPE, Lakenheath didn’t want to risk the chance of squeaking by Menwith Hill or being beat at home.

Kristen Reed accumulated a career-high 35 points against a team that could only scrounge about two thirds that totals.

Reed was accompanied by Jourdan Hodge, who also had a high scoring game of 22 points, both ensured the game was effectively over early.

Lakenheath closed out the regular season with a 6-2 regional record and 10-3 overall.
