After two previous failed attempts, the Jaén team fulfilled its objective in an impeccable final phase. The squad coached by Borja Medina was crowned champion and secured their spot in the higher category.
The match began with a highly engaged Jaén FS Baloncesto, setting a high pace and establishing an eight-point lead by the end of the first quarter (22-14). The three-point accuracy of players like Dusan Juzbasic, Rubén Salas, and Lucas Sigismonti extended the advantage to 17 points in the second quarter (45-28), although the opponent narrowed the gap before halftime (45-34).
In the second half, Teknei Bizkaia Zornotza increased their intensity and managed to get within two points (54-51 and later 74-72). In moments of doubt, Dusan Juzbasic stepped up to keep the home team afloat, and in the final quarter, Rubén Salas and Lucas Sigismonti sealed the game with a layup and a three-pointer (79-72).
Cebolla's three-point shot sealed the victory and unleashed euphoria among the team and its fans, the Marea Amarilla. The promotion, pursued for three seasons, is now a reality after an outstanding performance in Alginet.
