Group B continues in Concepción

CONCEPCIÓN (Chile) - The start of the BCL Americas' second window approaches and Chile will host the action. In Group B, Universidad will play as locals against the latest continental champion, Quimsa from Santiago del Estero.

Day: March 4. Local time: 7:10pm. TV: DIRECTV Sports and DAZN.
Referees: Julio César Anaya Freile (Panamá), Rodrigo León Mejía Mesa (Colombia) and Carol Sacramento García Ferro (Colombia).
Stadium: Gimnasio de la Casa del Deporte, Concepción, Chile.

Universidad de Concepción and Quimsa will open the BCL Americas' second window at "Gimnasio de la Casa del Deporte", in Chile. In the previous encounter, the Argentine team won 81-75 in Buenos Aires.

Universidad de Concepción (3º), is second in the Northern Conference of its National League, and will try to make the most of their home advantage so it can add points and leave the bottom of the table. The team led by Cipriano Núñez has three players from the National Team that were present on the AmeriCup 2022 Qualifiers: Diego Silva, Carlos Lauler and Sebastián Carrasco.

 

As for Quimsa (2º), who's just become the "Súper 20" champion, it incorporated Leonardo Mainoldi, who comes from Trouville, from the Uruguayan League. Also, for this window, it won’t have its coach, Sebastián González, who had to stay in Argentina due to family matters. Edgardo Santillán Acosta, the assistant coach, will take his place.

The other team in Group B is São Paulo (1º), who will play against Quimsa on 3/5 and against Universidad de Concepción on 3/6. Which team will have the best position after this window?
