In the All Japan Basketball Championship, the women's final was held, and ENEOS defeated Toyota in a come-from-behind victory to win the eighth straight title.
On the 20th of the All Japan Basketball Championship, the women's final was held at Yoyogi 2nd Gymnasium in Shibuya-ku, Tokyo, and ENEOS and Toyota, aiming for the eighth straight victory, played against each other.
While ENEOS lacked ace Ramu Tokashiki due to injury, Toyota continued to suffer from various attacks, leading the first half to 41:47 and turning back.
Even so, at the end of the third quarter, Saori Miyazaki scored points by making a dribble that made the best use of his speed and scoring a shot.
Then, with 7 seconds remaining, rookie Tamami Nakada scored a shot and succeeded in reversing with 64 to 63.
In the 4th quarter, ENEOS also widened the lead with Miyazaki's shot and defeated Toyota 87-80 to win the 8th straight victory.
Nakata said, "There is a big hole for injured people including Tokashiki, and I think everyone on the team was honest and worried about their participation in the first year from the start. However, all the team members voiced at any time. It was a very good match because we were able to communicate with each other and fight. "
