On the day of the regaining of Lithuania’s independence, in the second semi-final match, the KTU team found out that they are going to fight for the LSKL gold! Although they lost by one point to KK – 73:74, the total score of the semi-final series – 168:158 – gave KTU the opportunity to compete in the LSKL finals.
“We worked patiently throughout the season. Although we were unlucky at the beginning of the LSKL season, finishing fourth in the regular season, we proved our quality in the playoffs. I am proud of the men. We are already guaranteed LSKL silver medals and we still have a chance to fight for the gold”, – coach L. Šimkus noted lssa.lt.
