> Matches:

The first eight played last weekend, here are the results:

Boston College came to Concepcion to play vs Aleman: started with a 2-10 good streak, but the game went tied until the last 5 minutes, with lead changes and no more that 8 points difference. The good wraping up by Boston College to win 86-105 showed us why is the Professional team and Aleman the amateur. Probably a report to be posted soon. Interviews with Benjamin, Townes, Coach Miranda, Coach Caceres, Jose Luis Campos and Jorge Valencia.

Universidad Catolica lost 95-63 in Puente Alto. According to reports, it was an erratic Catolica, the team had "a bad day", continuing bad performance away: only one win and three loses. On the contrary: perfect home performance.

Espanol Talca won 63-75 at Sagrados Corazones Vina del Mar. Sagrados Corazones no match against Espanol Talca, who has two foreign players and one is injured.

CD UDECONCE lost 97-85 at Liceo Mixto. The return of National Team player Patricio Briones from Colombia made a big difference: 31 points including six of eight three pointers, a complete player.

> DIMAYOR

South Group of DIMAYOR in two weeks with four teams played ONLY TWO games, since Universidad Autonoma Temuco DEFECTED. I interviewed Dunston last week after his first game and win over Universidad Los Lagos.

1-0 Valdivia
1-1 Universidad Los Lagos
0-1 Lautao
--- Universidad Autonoma Temuco

The North Group starts November 20:
CAP Rancagua, Puente Alto, Universidad de Chile and SOKOL Antofagasta.

TOP 4 FINAL is to be played December 17 on an undetermined site.

I have been unable to get the new rulebook for DIMAYOR.
