Emiliano Lasa did 7.95 m at the long jump, missing the finals by 1 cm! So sad for Lasa missing the final this time. I remember seeing him at the 2011 Pan American Games, when his career was just starting, he looked so happy just with reaching the final then.

NaBUru38 205 Posted October 11, 2021 Author #56 Share Posted October 11, 2021 In rugby, Los Teros defeated United States, and qualified to the 2023 World Cup. In football, the men's team drew Colombia and lost 3-0 to Argentina. Brazil is next. In handball, the women 's team finished 4th at the South and Central American Championship. Only the top 3 qualified, and out team drew 3rd and 5th place finishers Paraguay and Chile. In swimming, the men's under-18 waterpolo team is selling lottery tickets to fund their travel to the South American championship. One wonders what's the continental and world federations spending their budget on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
