D1 Round 8 of Regular Season

Here is the last round review presented by Job Market.

Round 8 most important game was a victory of MAS Fez over 6th ranked CRA Hoceima 73-52 on Monday night. MAS Fez (2-3) moved-up to fifth place, which they share with CSCETB and Club Bni. CRA Hoceima lost third consecutive game. They dropped to the seventh position with four games lost.
Another interesting game was a derby match between two teams from Tanger: IRT Tanger (#3) and Majd T. (#4). Majd T. was defeated at home 81-87 and even the fact of playing on their own court did not help. IRT Tanger maintains third position with 4-2 record having just two point less than leader AMIB. Newly promoted Majd T. keeps the fourth place with two games lost. They share the position with WAC.
Very important is a road loss of third ranked FAR Rabat (3-2) against fourth ranked AS Sale (3-2) on Saturday night. Visiting FAR Rabat was defeated by AS Sale in a tough game in Sale 67-72. It ended at the same time the three-game winning streak of FAR Rabat. Defending champion moved-up to third place, which they share with defeated FAR Rabat.

There were no big surprises in other games of round 8: Larache smashed RSB Berkane on the road 123-12. CSCETB lost to KACM on its own court 58-65. Club Bni lost to undefeated AMIB in Casablanca 40-68.
