Regular Season Round 15: Canberra - Bendigo 73-77

Date: January 25, 2026
An interesting game for Bendigo Spirit (16-4) which played road game in Canberra against 4th placed Canberra Capitals (8-12). Second ranked Bendigo Spirit managed to get a 4-point victory 77-73. It was an exceptional evening for the former international power forward Kelsey Griffin (188-1987, college: Nebraska) who led the winners with a double-double by scoring 20 points and 14 rebounds. International guard Isobel Borlase (180-2004) accounted for 23 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists for the winning side. The former international power forward Zitina Aokuso (193-1998) came up with 22 points and 6 rebounds and forward Nyadiew Puoch (190-2004) added 18 points and 5 rebounds respectively for Canberra in the defeat. Canberra Capitals' coach rotated ten players in this game, but that didn't help. The victory was the third consecutive win for Bendigo Spirit. Defending champion maintains second place with 16-4 record behind leader Townsville. Loser Canberra Capitals dropped to the fifth position with 12 games lost. Bendigo will meet at home Perth (#3) in the next round, which may be the game of the day. Canberra will play against Southside and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
