ALYTUS & KLAIPEDA (Lithuania) - Petra Bozan put in a performance for the ages at the FIBA U20 Women's EuroBasket on Sunday as she not only tied the all-time efficiency record, but also made history with the best ever rebounding display.
The forward was unstoppable in what proved to be a hard-fought 87-85 loss to Israel as she racked up 26 points and a jaw-dropping 28 rebounds.
She also added 4 assists and a block for her team to finish with a performance efficiency valuation of 48 that equalled the previous best that was logged by Daniele Paunksnyte at last year's edition - also against Israel.
Meanwhile, her incredible effort on the glass saw her set a new high tide mark, surpassing the 27 boards pulled down by Allis Nystrom of Sweden back in 2013.
