Dewarick Spencer led the winners with 23 points, Pape Badiane added 16, Marc Salyers had 14 and Aaron Harper 10 for Roanne. John Best led Chalon with 15 points. Spencer had 7 points in the opening period while Domenico Marcario buried a triple for a 17-20 Roanne lead after 10 minutes. Salyers led a 2-13 opening run in the second quarter that helped the guests to keep a double-digit margin, 32-42, at halftime. Badiane and an unstoppable Spencer allowed Roanne to make it a 16-point game, 37-53, late in the third quarter. Chalon got within 57-63 but Spencer led a 0-11 run that sealed the outcome.
