There will be only one (last) round of the Regular Season in Top Division II. Host teams show no mercy winning all games. Here is the last round review presented by Job Market.
Top Division II top team – Point Chaud (18-6) added another victory to their record on Saturday. This time they beat eleventh ranked St-Truiden (9-16) in Sprimont 77-72. It ended at the same time the two-game winning streak of St-Truiden. Point Chaud maintains first place with 18-6 record. Newly promoted St-Truiden keeps the eleventh position with 16 games lost. Point Chaud are looking forward to face Oxaco (#13) in Boechout in the next round which should be an easy win for them. St-Truiden will play at home against Hasselt and is hoping to prove to their supporters that the loss was just an accident.
The game in Hasselt was also worth to mention about. 4th placed Vilvoorde (14-11) played at the court of fifth ranked Hasselt (14-9). Hasselt defeated Vilvoorde 85-75. It ended at the same time the three-game winning streak of Vilvoorde. Hasselt have a solid series of three victories in a row. They moved-up to fourth place. Vilvoorde at the other side dropped to the fifth position with 11 games lost. They share it with Namur-Beograd. Hasselt will play against St-Truiden (#11) in Sint-Truiden in the next round and are hoping to win another game. Vilvoorde will play at home against the league’s second-placed Willebroek (#2) and hopes to get back on the winning track.
Tenth-ranked Asse-Ternat (9-15) was very close to win a game against eighth ranked Esneux (13-12) on Sunday. Esneux managed to secure only three-point victory 78-75. However their fans expected easier game. Esneux moved-up to seventh place, which they share with Pepinster. Asse-Ternat lost fourth consecutive game. They keep the tenth position with 15 games lost. Esneux will meet higher ranked Leuven Bears B (#3) on the road in the next round and it will be quite challenging to get another victory.

Other games in round 25 were not that significant. Oxaco was smashed by Namur-Beograd on the road 95-60. Willebroek won against Pepinster on its own court 83-69. Andenne was outscored by Leuven Bears B in a road game 70-48.
