D1 Round 18 of Regular Season

Here is the last round review presented by Job Market.

The game in Fez was quite interesting. 5th ranked IRT Tanger (8-6) played at the court of sixth ranked MAS Fez (9-5). MAS Fez managed to secure a 4-point victory 79-75 on Monday. MAS Fez have an impressive seven-game winning streak. They moved-up to fifth place. IRT Tanger lost third consecutive game. They dropped to the sixth position with six games lost. MAS Fez will have a break next round, and it should allow them to practice more before next game. IRT Tanger will play at home against FAR Rabat (#4) and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
The game between 12th ranked OCY (1-12) and tenth ranked Larache (5-9) in Yusufiya ended with biggest points difference. Guests from Larache outscored OCY 98-52. Larache maintains tenth position with 5-9 record. OCY lost tenth consecutive game. Newly promoted team keeps the twelfth place with 12 games lost. Larache will play against higher ranked FUS Rabat (#3) at home in the next round and they do not belong to the favorites in that game. OCY will have a break next round.

In the last two games of round 18 AREH was beaten by FAR Rabat on the road 67-59. RCA Casabl. won against KACM on its own court 75-67.

FAR Rabat - AREH 67-59

No shocking result in a game when fourth ranked FAR Rabat (9-3) beat at home 7th ranked AREH (7-7) 67-59. FAR Rabat maintains fourth position with 9-3 record. AREH lost fifth consecutive game. Newly promoted team keeps the seventh place with seven games lost. FAR Rabat will play against IRT Tanger (#6) on the road in the next round. AREH will play against RCA Casabl. and it may be a tough game between close rivals.

OCY - Larache 52-98

The game between 12th ranked OCY (1-12) and tenth ranked Larache (5-9) in Yusufiya ended with biggest points difference. Guests from Larache outscored OCY 98-52.

RCA Casabl. - KACM 75-67

We cannot really consider it an upset in the game between close teams when 8th ranked KACM (7-8) lost to ninth ranked RCA Casabl. (6-8) in Casablanca 67-75. RCA Casabl. have a solid three-game winning streak. They maintain ninth position with 6-8 record. KACM at the other side keeps the eighth place with eight games lost. RCA Casabl. will play against higher ranked AREH (#7) in El Hajeb in the next round and it may be quite challenging game. KACM will play at home against the league's second-placed AS Sale where they are definitely not considered as a favorite in this game either.

MAS Fez - IRT Tanger 79-75
