The two teams that lost on the first day met in Friday’s first game and it was Tenis that got the 76-66 win. Power was led by Libia De La Rosa and also handed a minute of playing time to their 14 year old Allison Hernandez. That meant that the two teams that had already picked up wins met in the second game and it was Obras that defeated Agustina Marin and Aguada 81-52.

The important game on Saturday was the opener with both teams looking to get their second win. It ended up being a fantastic game as Tenis bringing in a duo of Americans helped their cause between Chinna Fair’s scoring and Nija Collier’s rebounding. Florencia Fernandez provided both to Aguada though and they qualified for the semifinals with a 72-70 win. The results of the last game had no impact on the final standings, but Obras did put on a show for the home fans and sent Power away winless 76-48.
