Alex Garcia
Zapone Bauru Basket U20 team drive from start to finish the game that opened the Group B of the South American League of Clubs, beating with wide margin 52x88 to Regatas Corrientes in staged play in the city of Obera , Misiones.
The first quarter had some alternatives for those led by Fernando Rivero , but without being able to stop an offensive that came to take a 9-4 advantage when 4 50 remained. From then on they continued to beat side and side baskets to finish 14 to 8.
In the second the recipe of Zapone Bauru Basket U20 team changed and the offensive train led by Alex Garcia (190-G-1980, agency: Interperformances) ( at the end of the 1st time record 17 units), was blunt. Considering that from the three-point line the effectiveness for the Brazilian team was 42% by just 15% of the Correntino team.
On the other hand in defense they could take up to 20 rebounds by 14 of Regatas, counting on the protagonism of Alex Garcia who captured 7 in that stage.
The break to the changing rooms gave back some signs that were thought that things would change, with Diez scoring a streak of 4 points in a row. But there was no steady pace and once again Zapone Bauru Basket U20 team imposed his rhythm and hierarchy by sentencing the game from the end of the 3rd quarter.
Alex Garcia recorded 22 points 9 rebounds and 5 assists for the green box. While for Corrientes Alejandro Diez (201-F-1987) had 15 points and 3 rebounds.
Very difficult game to start the South American League. We focused on the defense and then we were arming the attack commented the captain and top scorer of the match by Zapone Bauru Basket U20 team.
Zapone Bauru Basket U20 team will play the 2nd day on Saturday against the host Obera Tennis Club
