Spanish League Round 11 December 21st-22nd

The round started with one game on Friday with the rest played on Saturday.  Valencia was impressive in a 79-59 win over Araski.  Ensino made a key signing in their quest to steer clear of danger as they beat Sant Adria 82-65.  Avenida got a tougher challenge than expected from Gipuzkoa, but held on to a 58-54 win.  Sedis continued lurking behind the top team with a 63-56 win at Bembibre.  Keisha Hampton and Girona came back late to record a second straight impressive performance with a 73-68 win over Jazmon Gwathmey and Gernika.  Ferrol continues to languish in last place after a 70-58 loss to Brittany Brown and Zaragoza.  The day did not want to end as it took two overtimes for Paola Ferrari and Al-Qazeres to dispatch Nogaye Lo and Zamarat 87-80.
