he American Basketball Association (ABA) completed the second weekend of its play-in round games over the weekend as a record number of teams compete to make the Final Eight Tournament.  “This was one super competitive weekend,” stated ABA CEO Joe Newman, “with possibly two of the biggest upsets in league history.  The Burning River Buckets defeated the #2 ranked Chicago Fury on  Saturday night and came back and defeated the #9 ranked Ohio Bruins on Sunday afternoon and thus locked up a spot in the Final Eight for the North Central Region. Just an amazing outcome of a very well run tournament.”
