Šiauliai-Universitetas Women saw off Rokiskis Women 98-69 in the Moterų Līga on Wednesday evening. The home side opened a commanding gap early and never looked back as the visitors struggled to find any rhythm. It was a comprehensive victory that moved the hosts further clear in third place, four points behind the leaders with one game in hand. The result extended their winning streak to four matches, a run that has made them difficult to beat at home this season.
Rokiskis came into the fixture on the back of a 81-65 win over Aistės LSŪ Kaunas, but that form evaporated quickly against a hostile Šiauliai crowd. They managed to stay within striking distance for the opening quarter, but the home side's shooting accuracy proved too much to contain. There was little resistance once Šiauliai-Universitetas switched to a back three, the visitors' defence struggling to adapt. By then the game was already slipping away, and the final margin of 29 points told its own story.
Šiauliai-Universitetas have been in strong form of late, winning their last four matches in all competitions. They beat TTT Riga Junior 101-70 on Saturday and followed that with an 82-77 victory over TTT Riga the previous week. The only blemish on that run came four days earlier in a 71-90 defeat to Kibirkštis MRU Vilnius, but this performance suggested the team had bounced back nicely. The support of the fans could be called devoted, but that is an assessment, not a fact. The fact is that the club sits top of the table
