Backing up after a 97-59 win against the Canberra Gunners on Saturday, the Braves accounted for the Basketball Australia Centre of Excellence 75-60 on Sunday.

The Lady Braves split their road double,  defeating the Canberra Capitals Academy 85-58, but losing Sunday's encounter against the Centre of Excellence 75-85.

Despite Sunday's loss, Lady Braves coach Jonathan Goodman said he was happy with how the weekend panned out.

They were without their WNBL star Elyse Penaluna, who is continuing to recover from injury, and guard Jane Chalmers, who succumbed to injury during the warm-up.

Complicating matters, star guard Kelly Wilson fouled out at the start of the last quarter, while Caitlin McLachlan and Ash Stonehouse were both on restricted game-time.

"Given what we went through, (1-1) is a great result for the weekend," Goodman said.

"We lost Charlie Brancatisano in the second quarter (against the COE) and to be still tied up going into the last quarter, to be honest, I was really proud how the girls went and how everyone contributed."

Goodman said given their run with injury the Lady Braves were "pretty fortunate" to be 3-3.

He added there were plenty of positives to emerge from their weekend.

Keely Froling had 20 points and nine rebounds against Canberra and backed up with 28 points and 15 rebounds against the COE.

Kelly Wilson starred against Canberra with 15 points, eight assists and seven rebounds and added 19 points.

Particularly pleasing for Goodman was the performance of his bench, which contributed 33 and 23 points throughout the weekend.

Brancatisano scored 10 and Maddie Saxton added nine points against Canberra.

Meanwhile, the Braves extended their lead at the top of the east conference ladder with a pair of wins.

They are now 6-1 ahead of a Saturday night encounter against the Andrew Gaze-coached Melbourne Tigers in Bendigo.

Like his Lady Braves counterpart Goodman, Braves coach Ben Harvey praised the performance of his bench for its effort against Canberra.

Jake Cowling scored 10 points as he and his bench mates combined for 21 points.

The Braves again got excellent production from their star imports Jeremy Kendle and Damain Johnson.

Kendle led the way against Canberra with 32 points and added 18 against the COE, while Johnson contributed 13 points and 12 rebounds and a game-high 25 points.

Guard Kevin White had arguably his best game as a Brave against the COE, with 14 points, five steals and four assists, earning praise from his coach.

"He is a really good leader with our club - to have him, being an NBL player - he's a really good vocal player on the floor," Harvey said.

"When he scores double figures he really gets the team morale up and gets others involved.

"Jeremy Kendle averaged 25 points for the weekend and he and Damian Johnson really complement our team."

Chris Hogan scored 17 points against Canberra.
