A sports spectacle was experienced at the closing of the State Basketball Championship, where Mexicali and Tijuana won the titles in the Women’s branch last Sunday, February 20, at the State Auditorium.
In the Under 16 category, both municipalities reached the last game to define the state title and in extra time the Mexicalenses celebrated big by beating the Tijuanenses 58-56 in a howling duel that made the Ciudad Deportiva vibrate.
In regulation time there was a tie at 52 points, thanks to a triple by Camila Salazar fractions of seconds before the end of the game, after Ana Medina, from Mexicali, extended the cachanilla advantage to three points, being the madness in the Auditorium of the State.
Mexicali in overtime had three points from Paola Longoria, two from Carmen Guillen and one from Mariana Vega, which sealed the vibrant victory over the Tijuana team.
And in the duel that defined the final in the Under 18 category, Tijuana beat Mexicali 76-45 to celebrate the third title in the State Basketball Championship, after a week ago in the men’s category the Tijuana residents swept the Auditorium of the Condition.
Tijuana had no major problems to define the game for the title and at halftime it was already winning 38-20, heading for the championship with 19 points from Kimberly Guevara (with five triples), twelve from Alexa Achutegui and eleven from Carla Barajas.
