It was the chef’s surprise on Friday evening when he faced Chartres. Paul Bouloukouet remained in civilian clothes. Already reduced in Le Havre on Tuesday by an allergy causing swelling of the eyes, the best player of GET Vosges this season in the evaluation suffers this time from a small muscle lesion, detected on ultrasound. The medical staff vetoed his participation in the Chartres match. The person will be able to take advantage of the international truce to heal this wound.
The Orchies match this Tuesday postponed again: Normally, the GET Vosges should have welcomed Orchies this Tuesday. A January 26 meeting postponed due to COVID cases in the northern camp. The Vosges leaders in turn asked for a postponement to Wednesday February 24 as authorized by the regulations when one of his players is called up for selection.
Kiady Razanamahenina with Madagascar: The international in question in the ranks of GET Vosges is none other than Kiady Razanamahenina. After his card against Chartres (35 points), the person directly set sail for Paris, a flight waiting for him the next day at noon to join the selection of Madagascar in Tunisia.
Three matches against Tunisia, the Republic of Central Africa and the Democratic Republic of Congo await him on February 19, 20 and 21 as part of the Afrobasket 2021 qualifiers (in Rwanda). The playmaker will be back on the evening of Monday 22nd, just in time to play against Orchies on the 24th.

When Kiady dislodges his teammate Paul: Razanamahenina’s 35 points against Chartres constitute the new record in a National 1 match this season. The previous record belonged to… his team-mate Paul Bouloukouet with 34 units in Kaysersberg (tied this weekend in the other pool by Richard Devon Thomas de Challans). At this time, two elements of GET Vosges are at the top of this statistical chapter.
113 points, offensive record for GET Vosges: Driven by the Razanamahenina-Gigant-Diop trio, the GET Vosges attack fired from all woods against Chartres. It is “only” the 3e offensive card of the season and the Vosges know it better than anyone since they came out of a match with 120 points conceded in Le Havre. Le Havre had already stacked 119 points against Kaysersberg.
But the 113 units of Laurent Mathis’ men constitute the club’s record in National 1. The previous one went back to April 15, 2017 against Rennes (111-60).
