Norrköping, fourth in the table, had a tough time when runner-up Sjuhärad got it right.
The Borås team's third victory of the season became a fact after national team meritorious Elin Ljunggren had a great show.
The 26-year-old accounted for 29 points in the home victory.
With those numbers, Ljunggren was the top scorer in the match.
Sjuhärad impressed from the start and had a lead of 25 points at halftime.
Hope lives on
With the 81-69 victory, Sjuhärad's dreams of a playoff spot are now alive.
The win means that you have the same number of points, 6, as Högsbo, the team that is just over the line.
