Audrey Tchako Tchako was the difference. Thirteen points, three rebounds, two steals and a block—the young Cat's footprint across the full 40 minutes as Belgium edged Italy 62–55 at the U18 Women's EuroBasket. It was a win ground out on discipline rather than flash. Italy kept the tempo low and the margins tight; our youngsters had to earn every basket. Tchako's scoring came in bursts—her ability to finish at the rim and move the ball keeping the offense honest when Italy's defense tightened. She also had her hands in on the defensive end, active on the ball in ways that forced turnovers and set the tone. The margin tells you what kind of game this was. Not a rout. Not a blowout. Just a team that found a way when it mattered. Next up: the next opponent awaits.
