BASKETBALL: DEFENDERS AND SPARKS, WITH THE NEED TO WIN

The two representatives of the Association of San Nicolás will play as local today for the eighth date of Group B. From 9:00 p.m., Garnet will collide with Comunicaciones de Pergamino, while at 9:00 p.m. “Saca” will face Náutico de San Pedro.

The ABSN representatives today will be local. GENTILEZA EZEQUIEL SOLDARINI.

In the continuity of the eighth date of the Prefederal Tournament of the province of Buenos Aires, Defensores and Sacachispas will have the obligation to win if they intend to maintain their chances of qualifying for the next round, which will be accessed by the first three from each zone. For Group B, from 9:00 p.m. in Villa Ramallo, the Garnet will receive Communications from Pergamino. Meanwhile, in Villa Constitución at 9:30 p.m. Sacachispas will play with Náutico de San Pedro. This time the leader Independiente de Zárate will be free.

Controversy through, Defensores did not play last weekend with Náutico, since the sampedrinos had a case of coronavirus on their campus and, as they argued that they could not train, they asked the Federation to suspend their commitment. The ramalla players have added two wins so far, both against Sacachispas. Against the one who will be his rival today, he did not do well at Pergamino, where Comunicaciones beat him 77 to 49.

For his part, Sacachispas will face Náutico, who after having started with three victories in a row, has two consecutive falls. The villenses could only beat Comunicaciones so far in the contest and they are last. A new misstep will leave “Saca” on the brink of elimination. In the previous clash, Náutico won 81 to 72. On Monday at 8:00 p.m. both Defensores and Sacachispas will play again: those of Martín Blanco in Zárate with Independiente and those of Claudio Sánchez in Pergamino con Comunicaciones.

For now, last night the activity for matchday 8 began with the victory at home of the leader, Racing de Olavarría, by 73 to 56 over Independiente de Tandil in the framework of Group C.
