Date: March 21, 2012
An exciting game between Top Four teams was played in Hermosillo. First ranked Rayos de Hermosillo faced 3rd ranked Tijuana Zonkeys. Host Rayos de Hermosillo (8-1) smashed guests from Tijuana (6-2) 87-66. The game was mostly controlled by Rayos de Hermosillo. Tijuana Zonkeys managed to win second period 20-16. But it was not enough to take a lead and get a victory that evening. Rayos de Hermosillo looked well-organized offensively handing out 23 assists comparing to just 9 passes made by Tijuana Zonkeys' players. The best player for the winners was naturalized American point guard Steve Monreal (180-86, college: CS Monterey) who had a double-double by scoring 16 points, 7 rebounds and 11 assists. American center Sam Coleman (208-87, college: Coppin St.) chipped in 12 points and 9 rebounds. Coleman is a former Eurobasket Summer League player, which is considered top international summer league in the market. Four Rayos de Hermosillo players scored in double figures. The former international point guard Omar Quintero (183-81, college: S.Nazarene) produced 18 points and American swingman Marcus Morrison (198-84, college: Middle Tenn.St.) added 13 points and 7 rebounds respectively for the guests. The winner was already known earlier in the game, so both coaches allowed to play the bench players saving starting five for next games. Rayos de Hermosillo have an impressive seven-game winning streak. They maintain first position with 8-1 record. Tijuana Zonkeys at the other side keep the third place with two games lost. Rayos de Hermosillo are looking forward to face Caballeros de Culiacan (#9) on the road in the next round and are hoping to win another game. Tijuana Zonkeys will play against Frayles de Guasave (#8) and are hoping to prove to their fans that this time they can win.
