The European tour of the University of Utah basketball team will stop this Monday afternoon, July 31, in Noáin after postponed yesterday due to delays on the route of the American set. Starting at 6:00 p.m. The sports center where the boys and girls of the municipal team usually train will become a stage for stars.
Organized by Álex Calvo from Logrobasket from Noaindarra, a selection of the best Navarrese players of today they will face off against a team they would never have imagined facing. The University of Utah, in the middle of a preseason stage, will make a stop on the road between San Sebastián and Madrid to offer a show to lovers of the sport of basket in the Foral Community. Framed in the ‘Mountain West’ conference of the men’s NCAA, the varsity team comes from a place where basketball is the king of sports. The paraphernalia that accompanies them on their trip, their well-developed social networks, even the size of their workforce despite its youth, are proof of this. After having played two games in Barcelona and in San Sebastián, both with victory, the University of Utah faces the third challenge of its preseason today. Although the result is the least of it, the rival has prepared by selecting the best.
The Urtasun brothers: Pope -retired at the age of 42 after nine seasons at Megacalzado Ardoi-, Tsemi -who this year has played for Betis in the Endesa League and for Ourense in the LEB Oro- and Alex -in the ranks of Lleida in the second category-, they will come together again on the field for a special event. His experience will be joined by the youth of players like Pablo Fernandez ‘Fercho’, formerly of Basket Navarra who has just signed for Algeciras of LEB Plata. Furthermore, his own Alex Calvo will act as a base together with Bad Often (Baskonia de EBA), and the call will be completed Andres Zabaleta (Gipuzkoa Easo de EBA), Javi Lacunza (EBA Basketball Achievement) Lawrence Obajo (Logrobasket), the Aragonese Marcos Portalez (Baskonia) and Madrid Chema Gil (Pozuelo from EBA). The coach will be Jonathan Segur, children’s coach.
The date change has made it necessary to restructure the team because some players who were going to be there yesterday will not be able to do so today. Ander Urdiain or Raúl Lobaco, both ex-Basket Navarra, are some of those absent.
FREE ADMISSION
Access will be free and until completion of the capacity of 500 people. From the organization they expect a good reception despite the fact that the date change has moved the meeting to a working day.
