Regular Season Round 14: Townsville - Canberra 78-69

Date: January 18, 2026
Very expected game when 5th ranked Canberra Capitals (8-10) were defeated on the road by first ranked Townsville Fire (16-4) 78-69 on Sunday. Townsville forced 22 Canberra turnovers. Strangely Canberra outrebounded Townsville 43-26 including 28 on the defensive glass. They looked well-organized offensively handing out 23 assists. The former international swingman Courtney Woods (183-1997, college: NIU) had a double-double by scoring 20 points, 5 rebounds, 10 assists and 4 steals (was perfect 8-for-8 from the free throw line) to lead the charge for the winners and forward Alicia Froling (190-1996, college: SMU) chipped in 14 points and 6 rebounds during the contest. The former international power forward Zitina Aokuso (193-1998) responded with a double-double by scoring 11 points and 12 rebounds and guard Jayda Clark (163-2005) scored 12 points and 7 assists. Both teams had four players each who scored in double figures. Townsville Fire have a solid four-game winning streak. They maintain first position with 16-4 record. Loser Canberra Capitals keeps the fifth place with ten games lost. Townsville will meet at home Southside (#4) in the next round. Canberra will play against Bendigo and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
