Freseros de Irapuato held on for a 99-96 victory over Correcaminos UAT Victoria in the LNBP on 11 August 2026. The hosts took the win in a game that finished tighter than the margin suggests. To be fair, the away side pressed until the final buzzer, but the home squad had already dug deep enough to survive.
Freseros arrived with mixed momentum. They beat Diablos Rojos 86-82 on 7 August after suffering a 73-99 defeat just a night earlier. Correcaminos, meanwhile, had lost two straight to Mineros, 76-98 and 76-95, before a 93-58 rout of Santos. By then, both sides were looking to steady the ship.
The statistics tell a story of contrasting approaches. Freseros took 35 three-pointers, hitting 9, while Correcaminos attempted 22 and made 7. The hosts won the rebound battle 36-45, but Correcaminos could not convert the extra possessions into a win. There is unrest in the dressing room when you dominate the glass and still lose.
Correcaminos posted 40 successful field goals against 36, yet their 18 turnovers cost them dearly. Freseros committed 12, keeping the ball in play when it mattered. The visitors won 17 assists to 15, but assists mean little if the shots do not fall.
This result ends Correcaminos' losing streak against a team they had struggled with recently. For Freseros, it is another win after the 86-82 triumph over Diablos Rojos. The gap in the table remains narrow, and every game now carries weight.
