New South Wales has claimed the bronze medal after it closed the game with composure to overturn an early deficit and secure a four-point win, holding Victoria to just nine points in the final quarter. NSW did their damage inside, scoring 42 points in the paint, and capitalised on late defensive stops after a low-efficiency perimeter night (3-of-24 from three).
Jessie-May Hall carried the offensive load with 23 points and eight rebounds in 37 minutes, consistently converting inside the arc (10-of-15 on two-point attempts). Freya Bijkerk added 14 points and five rebounds, while Ruby Perkins chipped in 13 points, nine rebounds and three assists, anchoring NSW’s work on the glass and in transition. NSW finished with a 45–43 rebounding edge and forced 16 Victorian turnovers, which helped swing momentum late.
Victoria received balanced contributions but couldn’t convert late opportunities. Isobelle Wightman led with 17 points and eight rebounds, while Tayli DiMarco added 12 points and four assists and Addison Knight posted 12 points and eight rebounds. Despite knocking down nine threes, Victoria struggled to finish inside (39% on two-point attempts) and couldn’t generate enough scoring in the final term.

- Largest Lead: Tasmania by 17
- Game Context: Pool play – Day 5
Tasmania controlled the game through the first half and held off Victoria Navy’s third-quarter push to secure an 85–74 win. Tasmania led 43–34 at halftime after winning both opening periods, then absorbed a 21–19 third-quarter response from Victoria Navy before closing the fourth with another 23–19 edge to finish the job.
The difference was Tasmania’s ability to generate efficient scoring while still winning the pressure battle. Tasmania shot 45% from the floor and scored 31 points off turnovers, capitalising on Victoria Navy’s 26 turnovers. Victoria Navy kept pace from the perimeter (10 threes at 38%) and got 39 bench points, but Tasmania’s starting group carried the scoring and repeatedly converted inside, finishing with 38 points in the paint.
Portia Chopping led all scorers with 22 points and added five assists, while Nikki Parker produced 18 points and five assists across heavy minutes to steady Tasmania’s offence. Tasmania also had multiple double-digit rebounders – Chloe Broomhall and Andie Smith each pulled down 12 boards, helping Tasmania hold even on the glass and finish possessions despite the turnover count on both sides.
For Victoria Navy, Isabelle Godfrey was the primary scoring engine with 21 points and three assists, while Evelyn Martyn posted a strong interior line of 12 points and 12 rebounds. Sophie Alexander added 11 points on 3-of-3 shooting, and Victoria Navy’s second unit provided consistent scoring support, but the volume of turnovers and Tasmania’s conversion rate off those mistakes swung the margin.

Western Australia controlled the contest from the opening term and steadily built separation across all four quarters, using perimeter shooting and ball pressure to keep ACT at arm’s length. WA shot 52% from three (12/23) and finished with 21 assists, consistently stretching the floor and converting advantage situations, while forcing 22 ACT turnovers and limiting clean half-court looks.
Aysha Kemp led the way with 18 points and nine rebounds, providing efficient scoring inside and out, while Alyssa Bowen added 17 points, eight rebounds and three assists, mixing downhill attacks with free-throw pressure. Emilie Beggs controlled tempo with 11 points and eight assists, and Emma Clark chipped in 12 points as WA’s starters and bench both contributed to sustained scoreboard pressure.
ACT stayed competitive through effort plays and interior work but struggled to convert perimeter opportunities (4-of-17 from three). Zara Funnell led ACT with 17 points, while Katiah-Ann Tait added 13 points and eight rebounds and Achol Agok finished with 10 points and 10 rebounds.

New South Wales are national under-20 men's champions for the first time since 2007, closing with a dominant final quarter to overturn a double-digit deficit and edge Western Australia 74–71. After trailing by 13 at the main break and still down entering the fourth, NSW outscored WA 28–22 over the final period, flipping the game through defensive pressure, free-throw efficiency, and timely perimeter shot-making.
NSW’s comeback was led by Bailey Hanson, who finished with 19 points, eight rebounds, and three assists in nearly 38 minutes, anchoring the offence late and converting key possessions as WA’s scoring stalled. Bailey Macarthur added 16 points, while Jayden Tawake provided a crucial bench lift with 11 points on 3-of-4 shooting, including perfect efficiency from the line. NSW generated 22 bench points and converted 15-of-19 free throws, offsetting a shooting night below 40 percent from the field.
Western Australia controlled the first half through physicality and interior scoring, building an 18-point buffer behind Harrison Fitzgerald’s team-high 20 points on efficient shooting. Jongkuch Mach recorded 14 points and nine rebounds, while Marley Sam impacted multiple areas with 11 points, 11 rebounds, and four assists. However, WA struggled to close possessions late, committing 19 turnovers and scoring just 9 points in the third quarter, allowing NSW to steadily reel the margin back.

Lachlan Kanngiesser led Victoria with 26 points and nine rebounds in 33:53, getting to the line (9/9 FT) and controlling key possessions late. Jai Fa’ale added 19 points and four assists, Austin Foxwell finished with 13, and Henry Sewell went 6/7 for 12 points and seven rebounds.

Victoria won the glass 42–34, but South Australia’s turnover pressure (19 forced) and late scoring punch cut it to a one-possession finish.

- Game Context: Pool play – Day 5
Tasmania edged Queensland 100–97 in overtime after a late momentum swing and a decisive final shot. Queensland erased a six-point deficit in the fourth quarter to force extra time, but Tasmania executed the critical possession when it mattered, with Tommy Stewart drilling the game-winning three with seven seconds remaining. Queensland had a final look to extend the game, but Brodie McGregor’s tying attempt fell short with two seconds left.
The game turned on shot profile and rebounding. Queensland dominated the paint (72 points in the paint) and generated consistent interior pressure, but struggled from the perimeter (4-of-28 from three, 14%) and left points at the line (11-of-21 FT). Tasmania countered with volume and efficiency from deep (15-of-39 from three, 38%), won the rebound battle 55–50, and created enough second-chance opportunities (22 second-chance points) to offset Queensland’s interior scoring edge.
Tasmania’s backcourt and wings carried the scoring load across regulation and overtime. Mason Ling led all scorers with 27 points, adding eight rebounds and closing the game at the line and from range. Jack Smith provided sustained perimeter scoring with 21 points, while Logan Gibson anchored the interior with 17 points and 14 rebounds, controlling key possessions late. Stewart finished with 18 points, including the decisive three in overtime.
Queensland leaned heavily on McGregor, who delivered 25 points and 12 rebounds in a high-usage performance, consistently getting downhill and finishing through contact. Brayden Huff added 13 points, while Harry Cook chipped in 10 points and eight rebounds as Queensland’s frontcourt pressure kept the game within one possession throughout regulation and into overtime.

- Game Context: Pool play – Day 6
Victoria Navy finished seventh after it set the tone early and controlled the game throughout, breaking it open with a 25–11 first quarter and maintaining separation across all four periods. The Navy’s advantage came through efficiency and pace, shooting 52% from the field and 41% from three, while consistently winning the paint and transition battles to prevent ACT from stringing together momentum runs.
The offence was led by Chayse Vincent, who poured in 27 points on 11-of-16 shooting, attacking downhill and finishing efficiently inside. Nicholas Beattie added 20 points on strong shot selection, while Jarvis Neal steadied the game with seven assists. Victoria Navy’s depth also showed, with 31 bench points, keeping pressure on as rotations expanded.
ACT competed on effort and second-chance work but struggled to convert consistently against Navy ball pressure and shot quality. Ajak Nyuon led ACT with 17 points, working inside and at the line, while Austin Fage added 14 points and six rebounds. ACT’s shooting (33% FG) and turnovers (15) ultimately limited their ability to close the margin.
