The first final of the Bolivian Basketball League (Libobásquet) was won by Pichincha, beating Calero with a score of 78-72 on Thursday night in the match between teams from Potosí, played at the Ciudad de Potosí Coliseum. With Hunter Moise Preston as the figure, Pichincha emerged victorious from this first match corresponding to the Libobasket final, an instance that is played for the best of five games in Potosí, known as the Capital of Bolivian basketball, due to the hegemony of the clubs in tournaments controlled by the Bolivian Basketball Federation (FBB).
In a relentless match and with a stage full of fans, El Toro prevailed with a 78-72 with the following partials (20-20, 16-22, 24-14, and 18-16). The red machine led by coach Giovanny Vargas took control of the match thanks to the effectiveness of Preston, author of 23 points, escorted by Adriano Barreras with 18. Calero’s “owls” had problems in defense to stop their opponents, in the middle of the tight game, Rodrigo Acuña and Sebastián Morales made an effort to put their team on the scoreboard, but without the forcefulness that led them to this final.
