Colonias Gold made it four wins on the bounce in the LNB as they eased past hosts San Alfonso 102-67 on Monday night. The visitors, third in the table with ten victories from fourteen games, took control early and never looked back. San Alfonso, languishing in eighth place with just one win all season, had the match won away from them before the final period began.
The statistical gap told the story before the scoreboard did. Colonias Gold completed 35 field goals to their hosts' 17 and nutmegged them on the boards 37-23. The visitors also committed half the turnovers, 10 to 20, which meant San Alfonso kept handing the ball back at the first sign of pressure.
And here's the thing about a team on a run like Colonias Gold — they don't need to do everything perfectly, they just need to avoid the mistakes that sink other sides. Their ten assists came from structured movement, not individual heroics, while the hosts managed just eleven across the entire game.
San Alfonso have now lost their last six matches, including that 53-96 hammering by San José last Thursday. They sit bottom of the standings with a negative goal difference that is only going to worsen if this form holds.
Colonias Gold's recent results — wins against Deportivo Amambay and Deportivo Campalto, plus the 83-56 demolition of Capitata Bulls — suggest they are building something real. The gap between them and the teams below is widening, and by then it may be too late for those chasing.
