The specialized site Orange Planet performed this Thursday his award to the best of the year of the tournaments organized by the Mar del Plata Basketball Association.
The third edition of this installment that happily is becoming a classic of this sport in the city was held in the Monk’s Keep with a concurrence superior to two hundred people. It would have been the fourth in a row since 2019 if the pandemic did not kick in.
The spirit of the movement was summed up a bit by the great Facundo Campazzowho greeted everyone present via video from Dallas.
“I wish this award had existed in the years in which I played in the lower ranks of Peñarol. It is very good for all the boys to receive an award. Greetings to all and enjoy the party, ”said the Cordovan with his usual simplicity and humility.
Through a vote in which all the coaches and captains of the teams participate, Planeta Naranja distinguished the ideal quintets and the MVP of each category. Ignacio Saraceno, Bruno Grassi, Ariel Bagaloni and Agustìn Girotti, the members of the website’s staff, also chose the featured coach of each division.
