The scoreboard told a one-sided story: 22 to 5, 50 to 10, 84 to 11, and finaly 103 to 17. Rio Cuarto dominated the game, showcasing their strength under the guidance of their newly appointed technical director, damián Sayago, who made his debut last night.
Romina Moreira led the charge with an impressive 16 points, while Celina Novatti, a rising star from the “tricolor” youth team, emerged as the game’s standout player. In her first 18 minutes and 5 seconds on the court, she contributed 11 points, signaling a bright future ahead.
The team’s advancement is evident,with players like Abril Peralta exemplifying the progress made through rigorous training. Despite the absence of key players Numa and Niz, who typically anchor the squad, the first-block team from Alberdi Street demonstrated their depth and determination to maintain their upward trajectory.
The disparity between the two teams was stark. The visiting team, limited to just 8 players, managed only 3 rotations throughout the match. This highlighted the challenges faced by the Catamarcanians, who remain in the competition primarily to avoid the steep penalties imposed by the AdC for withdrawing mid-season.
This season has seen its share of setbacks, with Olympic de La Banda de Santiago del Estero withdrawing from the Northern Conference. Such exits underscore the difficulties teams face in maintaining their commitments.
Meanwhile, Gorriones continues to solidify its reputation, not just on the court but also off it. The team’s commitment to growth is evident in their improved logistics and infrastructure. Last night,they unveiled ten new LED lights in their gym,enhancing visibility and creating a more professional environment. Additionally, the installation of fans ensured optimal cooling, a welcome upgrade given the sweltering temperatures in the Southern Empire.
With a commanding 103 to 17 victory,Gorriones has set a high bar. However, players, coaches, and supporters alike understand that sustaining this momentum requires building on the successes of the Apertura tournament.
Looking ahead, Gorriones faces a challenging schedule. They will travel to Santiago del Estero next Wednesday to take on quimsa, followed by a home game on Tuesday the 28th against Chañares, led by James Craick. This matchup is already being hailed as a provincial classic, promising another thrilling chapter in their journey.
