Regular Season Round 21: Botev - Beroe 88-75

Date: March 9, 2026
Rather expected game when 8th ranked Beroe (8-13) lost to fifth ranked Botev (11-10) in Vratsa 75-88 on Monday. Botev shot 61.1 percent from the field. Botev had a 30-17 advantage in offensive rebounds. They looked well-organized offensively handing out 21 assists. International guard Georgi Gerganov (192-2003) nailed 24 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists (on 11-of-14 shooting from the field) for the winning side and point guard Mihail Kalinov (184-2007) accounted for 24 points and 4 assists. Four Botev players scored in double figures. American point guard Darius Quisenberry (185-1999, college: Fordham, agency: LHZ Sport Agency) came up with 24 points, 5 rebounds and 7 assists and the former international power forward Martin Jordanov (205-2002, agency: BIG) added 12 points and 10 rebounds respectively for Beroe in the defeat. Beroe's coach Daniel Klechkov tested ten players, but that didn't help to avoid defeat in this game. Newly promoted Botev maintains fifth place with 11-10 record. Beroe lost their fourth game in a row. They keep the eighth position with 13 games lost. They share it with Akademik. Botev will meet higher ranked Cherno More (#3) in the next round and it will be quite challenging to get another victory. Beroe will play against Shumen (#10) and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
