Neither team in Saturday’s first game had any chance of advancing, but both teams still went all out for the win as it took overtime for Paula Carrasco and Sportiva Italian to edge Romina Rodriguez and Universitario San Simon 77-74. The stakes were the opposite in the other game with both teams advancing and playing for seeding and that also turned out to be a fantastic game as Julieta Mungo and hosts Quimsa just got past Stephanie Madden and Aguada 58-57.
