French League Semifinals Game 1
Both semifinals series started on Tuesday in the same two game format as the last round. Villeneuve-d’Ascq took the lead early against Lattes Montpellier behind Kennedy Burke to bring home a solid 75-60 margin. Top seed Lyon will start on the ropes at home because Bourges’s backcourt of Yvonne Anderson and Pauline Astier was absolutely fantastic in their 80-67 win.
