Game Recap
Peñarol defeated Aguada 103–95 in Liga Uruguaya play, securing an eight-point win in a high-scoring matchup. The game featured efficient shooting on both sides, with Peñarol generating consistent offense through ball movement and multiple scoring options, while Aguada leaned heavily on a standout individual performance to stay within striking distance.
Aguada was paced by Santos Luis, who led all scorers with 29 points and repeatedly answered Peñarol runs. However, Peñarol’s balanced attack proved decisive: Santiago Vescovi scored 21 points, Andre Ibargüen added 19, Nicola Pomoli finished with 15, and N. Cole contributed 14. Peñarol also posted 25 assists, reflecting a team-oriented approach that created quality looks throughout the night.
Statistically, Peñarol’s edge came from controlling the glass (40 rebounds to 33) and creating more assisted offense (25 assists to 20). Both teams shot efficiently from the field—Peñarol at 30-for-46 (65.0%) and Aguada at 23-for-37 (62.0%)—but the game ultimately swung on Peñarol’s ability to sustain scoring with several contributors, especially when Aguada’s offense became more dependent on Luis’ shot-making.
Going forward, the result reinforces Peñarol’s ability to win with depth and playmaking, while Aguada can take positives from its offensive efficiency and perimeter output (8 made threes) but will likely look for more secondary scoring and stops in key stretches to avoid being outpaced late.
