For the first time in history, Szeged is in the Hungarian Final.  As the #3 seed, Szeged, upset #2 Mizo Pecs, who has made a final appearance for 12 consecutive years.  In the semi-final series of 3, Szeged was slaughtered in the first game 84-56 in Pecs.  However, Szeged bounced back at home with a 75-64 decisive victory to keep the series alive.  On the road, in the almost impossible arena to win in, Szeged was able to steal the last game with a  77-65 win and will get in the Hungarian final!  In game 3, despite a spained ankle, Michelle Maslowski came up with 21 points.

Here is a link to the game report of a Hungarian newspaper.

The final starts on Monday April 20th in Sopron.  It is a best of 5 series that takes place every other day.  The next game will be in Szeged on Wednesday, April 22nd.  And if necessary, Game 4 wil be held in Szeged on Sunday, April 26th.
