Only 22 golds away from our NOC's target, which is quite reachable at this point As for next year PanAmerican Games, I think Mexico's chances will be the same: between 20-24 golds and over 80 medls in total... sadly some events in which we swept the podium (like swimming, squash, cycling and taekwondo) are not going to be able to produce the same results as here.

Also in 3x3 matches were rescheduled... glad to see they managed to reschedule the Colombia v. Dominican Republic match

Today's last match in men's handball between Colombia and the Dominican Republic has apparently been cancelled. Either the Dominicans didn't show in the end, or they couldn't arrive on time, just like Puerto Rico's 3x3 yesterday

article Here it only talks about the men's squad, but I could bet some of the women players also missed their last match.

I wonder if these hockey teams will defect en masse like they did in Toronto.
