Ibaeta Basket breathes a sigh of relief after defeating third-placed Valencia 69-57 at the Gaska sports center, securing their twelfth win of the season, while Gipuzkoa Basket also wins, but Txuri Urdin fails to advance in the Cup semi-final.

Ibaeta Basket achieved its twelfth victory of the season by overcoming third-placed Valencia with a score of 69-57 at the Gaska sports center. This win puts an end to a streak of defeats and poor performances for the San Sebastian team, positioning them in eleventh place in the overall standings. Meanwhile, Gipuzkoa Basket also secured an important victory, winning 74-87 on Alicante's court, which allows them to stay close to the top positions in the league.
In ice hockey, Txuri Urdin could not cap off a good season, as they lost in the Cup semi-finals against Puigcerdà in Jaca (2-5). In the final, the home team, Jaca, claimed the title, having also won the league. In field hockey, Real Sociedad suffered an excessive penalty on Sanse Complutense's field (4-1), where three penalties awarded in the last quarter decided the match.
In handball, Bera Bera lost the Euskal Kopa final in Oñati against Zuazo (23-25). The San Sebastian team played with many players from the second team, which influenced the final result, despite a competitive final. In football, Real Sociedad could not win the Basque derby against Alavés (3-3) in the retro matchday, just before the Copa del Rey final. The team dropped two points in the last minute of the game, and now all eyes are on the La Cartuja final on April 18.
