Rocamora LDD Women secured a hard-fought 66-57 road victory over CD Chanares W in Argentina's Women's LLF on October 11, 2026. The visitors used a decisive third-quarter run and a stifling zone defense to pull away from a determined Chanares side.

Julieta Ale led Rocamora with 18 points and five assists, while Ornella Santana added a double-double of 14 points and 10 rebounds. CD Chanares W was paced by Micaela Gonzalez's 16 points and eight rebounds, but the home team struggled to find offensive consistency.

Match Overview

The game was a defensive struggle from the opening tip. Both teams traded blows in the first quarter, with Rocamora holding a slim 16-14 lead after 10 minutes. Chanares used a 6-0 run early in the second to take a 24-20 lead, but Rocamora closed the half on an 12-4 run to take a 32-28 advantage into the break.

Rocamora shot 42% from the field for the game, while Chanares managed just 35%. The visitors also controlled the boards, out-rebounding Chanares 38-31. Turnovers proved costly for the home side, as they coughed up the ball 17 times, leading to 19 Rocamora points.

The third quarter proved decisive. Rocamora opened the second half with a 12-2 run, capped by back-to-back three-pointers from Camila Rojas, to extend their lead to 44-30. Chanares fought back behind Gonzalez, cutting the deficit to 52-46 early in the fourth quarter.

But Rocamora had an answer every time. Santana scored six straight points in the paint, and Ale hit a step-back jumper to push the lead back to 12. Chanares could not get closer than seven the rest of the way, as Rocamora iced the game at the free-throw line.

Tactical Story

Rocamora's 2-3 zone defense was the story of the game. It clogged the paint and forced Chanares into long, contested jump shots. The home team shot just 5-of-22 from beyond the arc (22.7%) and rarely got to the rim. Rocamora's length on the wings, led by Santana and Rojas, disrupted passing lanes and generated 11 steals.

Offensively, Rocamora used ball movement to create open looks. They assisted on 18 of their 24 made field goals and repeatedly found cutters against Chanares' man-to-man defense. When Chanares switched to zone in the fourth, Ale and Rojas knocked down timely threes to seal the win.

Season Impact

With the win, Rocamora LDD Women improves to 3-1 on the season, keeping pace with the early front-runners in the LLF standings. CD Chanares W falls to 1-3 and will need to address its offensive efficiency moving forward.

Rocamora next hosts Union Florida on October 18, while Chanares travels to face Berazategui on October 17.
