France (1-1) got the first win in the Group of Death by beating Lithuania (0-2), 77-73 in Round 2 of the EuroBasket. One of the x-factors of the French team’s success was French-American player Terry Tarpey, who had quite the winning impact down the stretch for his squad, particularly on the defensive end.

“It’s not too intimidating for me because I always set my objectives and goals and are really high,” Tarpey said. “I want to play for the gold now and I want to play for the championship with Le Mans. I love playing this kind of games and playing on the road, and it felt like playing on the road tonight.”
