(#23 Je'Kel Foster - Vanoi Braga Cremona)
Another rare Buckeye versus Buckeye regular season meeting will take place on the island of Sardinia when Je'Kel Foster & Cremona (6-8) visit Othello Hunter's Sassari (5-9) club in an important week 14 contest.The records of both clubs are a reflection of how competitive the Italian League is where each week presents talented teams ready for a 40 minute battle. The competition was at its highest last week when the 2 former Buckeyes met up with the top ranked teams in Italy. Cremona narrowly fell at home to 2nd ranked AJ Milano 78-71. And despite an admirable effort on the road (Othello Hunter 20 points!), Sassari was defeated by defending Champion & European powerhouse Montepaschi Siena 83-92.

Both teams enter today's game in need of a win to get back on track in the league standings. The last meaningful regular season game with two Buckeyes was between the teams of Brandie Hoskins & Star Allen in Portugal (Fall 2010), JJ Sullinger & Terence Dials met up in China last year as well (Early Summer 2010).
