Valencia BC overwhelms Champ Academy - U13 with an 84–18 statement

In a one-sided contest on 13 February 2026 at Gostujoča dvorana, Valencia BC delivered a comprehensive performance to open their Pripravljalni turnirji campaign, running away with an 84–18 victory. From the first whistle the visiting side set the tone, building a lead that only grew across the four periods.

Scoring by period made the story plain: Valencia BC posted 28, 18, 14 and 24 points across the four quarters, while Champ Academy - U13 could muster 4, 2, 7 and 5 points respectively. The early onslaught — a 28–4 first period — allowed Valencia to control tempo, showcase efficient offense and rotate players without losing intensity.

Champ Academy’s offense found rare sparks in a difficult evening. Contributors included:

• Delavec Tilen — 4 points (2 made 2-pointers)
• Zibelnik Noel — 4 points (2 made 2-pointers)
• Klemenčič Jaka — 4 points (2 made 2-pointers)
• Modic Žan — 2 points (1 made 2-pointer)
• Jokanović Viktor — 1 point (1 made free throw)
• Gazinkovski Anja — 3 points (1 made 2-pointer and 1 free throw)

Valencia’s attack was relentless and often uncredited in the box score: long scoring runs of successive two-point baskets and timely triples left the scoreboard tilted early and allowed the team to maintain pressure throughout. Defensively, Valencia excelled at denying clean looks and forcing a low shooting volume — Champ Academy attempted relatively few field goals and converted at a limited rate, finishing the night with just 18 points.

For Champ Academy, there were encouraging flashes — individual efforts and late-period scores that will serve as building blocks. But the gulf in size, execution and depth was evident, and the coaching staff will have clear areas to address: creating higher-quality shot attempts, securing rebounds and sustaining defensive stops over full stretches.

Valencia BC’s dominant debut in this preparatory tournament sends a message about their readiness; for Champ Academy - U13, the game is likely to be treated as a learning experience and an early test to sharpen fundamentals.
