16 EuroCup Women victories for the home teams did not prevent two top seeded teams to be eliminated from the competition.

The number 12 seed CCC Polkowice and 16 seed Dunav Econt Ruse were the teams to fall to lower ranked teams.

The biggest comeback in the second leg was performed by Gran Canaria 2014 La Caja de Canarias that overturned a 22-point deficit against Jolly JBS Sibenik.

USO Mondeville and Lattes Montpellier perfectly paced themselves to victory to the delight of their supporters and coaches.

The Eighth-Finals (second round) are played over two legs, with the first games scheduled for 28 January and the return leg on 4 February 2010.

EuroCup news from the French clubs and players

Hervé Coudray, the coach from Mondeville, was more than satisfied with his team's performance in overcoming Baschet ICM (99-53).

He explained that he wanted to turn his bench so as to give his bench and junior players an opportunity to gain some playing time and confidence.

Clarisse Costaz (left) who has had an injury interrupted season so far came up with her best game for 2009-2010 to lead the scoring with 22 points.

This included 5-of-8 from beyond the arc.

Pauline Thizy and Fanny Cavallo, two players from the 1990 generation, had an opportunity to play extended minutes.

Lattes Montpellier had the pleasure of welcoming Emin Mogulkoc and Haydn Jones, two of the officials from the games between Tarbes and Spartak Moscow Region the previous evening.

Spartak Noginsk scored the first 4 points of the game. But Montpellier responded with a 9-0 run of their own to take command of the game.

They controlled the pace of the game the rest of the match to win (77-58).

Valéry Demory, the head coach from Montpellier, was satisfied with the team's performance. He was able to change players around without affecting the systems. All ten players got on the scoresheet.

Krissy Bade was on fine form for Ibiza Sport Island. She scored 14 points and picked up 5 assists as her team beat BC Dnipro (75-55) to book their place in the next round.

Allison Feaster-Strong fired in 19 points in 22 minutes to lead Mann Filter to victory over LMK SBC SF. Gheorghe (92-55).

There was disappointment for Erik Lehmann as his team Sdent Sierre Basket lost on the road to Dynamo Moscow (58-77).
