Hurricane Showcases Versatility; Ball Club Fights Back, Then Falters
Hurricane’s first 10 minutes were nothing short of celestial. Their intense offense battered Ball Club’s defense, dominating in the paint and from the three-point line. However, Ball Club rallied in the following quarters, ending both the second and third quarters trailing by just one point each thanks to their improved offense and good shooting from Farizano, López de Ipiña, and Coyette.
In the final 10 minutes, Hurricane once again pulled ahead, and despite a late surge from Ball Club, Falcone sealed the victory, scoring 12 of Hurricane’s 17 points in the quarter.
