Quilmes needed to raise his head but could not and lost 65 to 60 against Villa Miter of Bahía Blanca this Monday night at the Islas Malvinas Sports Center in Mar del Plata for a new date of the regular stage of the Southern Conference of the Argentine Basketball League. alex negrete -17 points- and Tom Nally -10- stood out in the local. Bollo Suárez was the best visitor, with 16 units. Next Monday he will face Gymnastics.
Quilmes needed a victory to start improving his coefficient in Mar del Plata but he did not achieve it: Villa Miter managed to seal his victory in the last quarter and left him at Tricolor empty-handed on a night of emotion for the tribute Luca Vildoza received at the Sports Center.
The first half was disputed. It was difficult for Quilmes to capture superiority in the field and in the moments in which he found greater fluidity, he could not take advantage. Thus, at the end of the second quarter, he only went to the long break up by one on the scoreboard: 27-26.
In the second half luck began to change. Although Quilmes initially managed to stretch the lead to five points, the visiting team, led by Bollo Suárez and the contributions of Levy Cox and Amigo, managed to stop this timid good moment from Quilmes and even things out: 45-46 before the final quarter.
how nice to have you @LucaVildoza!

Although the last quarter began with a hopeful bombshell from Jara that allowed Gelpi’s men to retake the initiative, it would only be a feint: a partial of 3-13 was devastating for the hopes of the local, who saw how the scoreboard became very uphill. Thus, Quilmes lost by 12 just under four minutes from the end.
In the final minutes, triples by Arraiz and Ecker ignited the illusion of Quilmes, who came close on the scoreboard, but it remained just that: illusion. The Bahian team knew how to manage the clock in the final times and ended up sealing a new victory against Gelpi’s that are still not lifted.
Now Quilmes will have a new commitment as a local, and it will be on Monday, January 24, when he receives Gymnastics of La Plata (2-4). Afterwards, he will return to the route to measure himself against park on on January 30, Thomas of Rocamora (February 1) and Concord students on February 3.
