Jose Carlos Barquero, President of CostaRican Basketball Federation (FeCoBa), released this week an official statement regarding the position of Liceo de Costa Rica and the FeCoBa decision to ban this club fron the Clausura Tournment of LBS. The reason of this action is to ensure continuity and quality of the first division (LBS) tournament, that will go on with only six teams. Liceo will be now subject to a remedial plan to come back to the right status and to be eligible to participate in the next season tournament. In fact, it seems that FeCoBa has "frozen" its franchise until Liceo officials will show to be able to join back the league. Otherwise, the club will lose the LBS franchise and will be forced to restart from lower division, as did Grecia and Limon, and like UCR is doing this season. For sure, Liceo The Lyceum leaves a great void, because during its stay in LBS won eight National Championships, four National Cup tournaments, and one edition of Central America Club Competition.
