Mazatlan.- What was announced as a new project three months ago, today is a reality, as the Las Plebes Basketball Club Mazatlán team will make its debut in the Mexican Women’s Professional Basketball League, a historic achievement for the sport in the port.

For tomorrow, Sunday, Plebes and Pheonix will play the second match of the inaugural series also in royal lands, but this time at 11:00 a.m., Sinaloa time.
