Belgium Women NT beat Australia Women NT 80–68 behind Emma Meesseman's 22
Emma Meesseman ran the floor with complete authority in Belgium Women NT's 80–68 Group C win over Australia Women NT. The forward finished with 22 points, 10 rebounds and 8 assists on 10-of-18 shooting—a near-flawless 2-for-2 from the line—while adding 2 steals across 32 minutes. Meesseman's work on both ends set the tone early. She moved the ball with precision when Australia packed the paint and answered with mid-range scoring when the defence spread. Her rebounding control, particularly on the offensive glass, gave Belgium second chances in a game where every possession carried weight in Group C positioning. Belgium's 12-point margin flattered neither team; Australia hung within reach until the final stretch. Meesseman's steadiness—only 2 turnovers despite 8 assists—proved the difference when Australia hunted for runs. She dictated pace rather than forcing it.
