Centrobasket 2024 Game 2 November 6th

Group A

This group had the first two games again on Wednesday and Hillary Martinez led El Salvador to a 64-53 win over Costa Rica after both teams tried to bounce back from opening losses. That result meant that Puerto Rico could seal qualification with a win in the next game and they looked ready to do that early before Cuba pushed back, but Arella Guirantes led her team again in a 79-66, clinching a semifinal place along with the spot in next summer’s confederation tournament.

Group B

After a hard-fought win the day before, the Dominican Republic was happy to roll past Guatemala 116-41 behind Esmery Martinez, Cesarina Capellan, and Yohanna Morton. That left the last game of the day where Mexico could make sure that both they and the Dominican Republic advanced and the hosts did so after Hazel Ramirez led them to an 81-57 win over the US Virgin Islands.
