Experienced Cuban Yayma Boulet (193-C-1984) had an amazing evening in the last round for league's second-best AD Isidro Metapan and that's her to receive a Hoops Agents Liga Mayor Player of the Week award for round 11.
The 40-year old center had a double-double of 39 points and 21 rebounds, while her team was edged out by San Salvador (#1, 11-1) 77-73. The game was between two of the league's top four teams. Metapan was forced-out from the top positions in Salvadorean Liga Mayor. Metapan has a very good season and are considered to have a run for the championship title. But that lost game cost them to change their overall "almost perfect" record to 10-1. Boulet turned to be Metapan's top player in her first season with the team. Boulet has impressive league stats. She is in league's top in points (2nd best: 29.3ppg), rebounds (3rd best: 15.5rpg) and averages solid 1.5bpg and 56.3% FGP.

The second most remarkable performance in last round's games was young Cuban point guard Arlenys Romero (176-PG-1984) of league's best team San Salvador. Romero impressed basketball fans with 32 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists. It was enough for San Salvador to edge slightly lower-ranked Metapan (#2, 10-1) by 4 points 77-73. It was definitely game of the week between two contenders to the title. San Salvador consolidated its place in the very top position of the standings. Her team belongs to top of the standings with 11-1 record and is considered one of the main candidates for the league title. Romero is well-known by San Salvador fans and she already established her position as one of team's most reliable players. She belongs to the best scorers in the league with 21.5ppg (#6). Her other stats are also decent: 4.4rpg and 7.1apg.

The third best performed player last round was Liset Valdes of Liga Municipal Monsenor Romero 2nd team (#6). Valdes scored 14 points and grabbed 19 rebounds (!!!). She was a key player of LMMR 2, leading her team to a 72-63 win against slightly higher-ranked Salvadorenas 2 (#4, 7-5). The chances of LMMR 2 ranking at the top of the league, however are very questionable as they have already lost 6 games, recording just five victories. With bigger assistance of her teammates, Valdes could help LMMR 2 to bring them higher in the standings. Valdes has a great season in El Salvador. After 11 games, she made it on the list of the league's leaders in rebounds with 16.3rpg (2nd best).

4. Eilen Gilbert (183-F-1998) of Salvadorenas 2 - 20 points, 18 rebounds and 2 assists
