Rostock Seawolves basketball performance

Overview

The Rostock Seawolves basketball club achieved significant victories in October 2026 across different competitions.

In the BKT EuroCup, the team secured its first-ever victory in the tournament by defeating the Latvian side Riga Zelli with a score of 87:86. The match was closely contested, with the win ultimately decided by free throws from Zach Copeland and Artur Konontsuk.

Following this, the Seawolves recorded a historic win in the Basketball Bundesliga (BBL), defeating Fitness First Würzburg Baskets 101:62. This 39-point margin represents the largest victory in the club’s history regarding point differential. After an initial 11:17 deficit, the team, led by head coach Przemyslaw Frasunkiewicz, improved their performance through defensive rebounding and dominated the second half.

However, the team's momentum in the BKT EuroCup was interrupted by a 70-82 loss to the French side Le Mans Sarthe Basket. Despite a late fourth-quarter attempt at a 23-point comeback, the Seawolves could not overcome the deficit. TJ Crockett Jr. and Zach Copeland led the scoring with a combined 40 points, but the team struggled with a depleted rotation due to illnesses affecting Bent Leuchten and Elias Baggette. Coach Frasunkiewicz noted that ten turnovers and missed opportunities near the basket contributed to the halftime deficit. Following this loss, the Seawolves sit in seventh place in Group A.
