Mexico II Division

Mexico Second Division. Technically, playing for one promotional spot and the complicated mixed formula of the championship brought Oaxtepec and Tepic to the final. Oaxtepec hosted the first leg and won 1-0. Small lead, but they were also better in the second leg, winning 2-1.

Little known Coras Tepic had very strong season indeed, but lost. Coming so close to promotion and losing however minimally is always a disappointment, but otherwise it was good season – 2nd in the Second Division.

Oaxtepec were the champions of Second Division, a rare achievement, which also meant promotion to top flight.

Possibly, a picture of the team – at least, a photo of that period. Some names sound familiar – Vucetich, Negrete – but were they the well players or just namesakes is hard to tell. Transfer politics in Mexico were a bit strange, depending mostly on current money and ambitions, yet, it was unlikely leading players to appear in Second Division. Great for the moment, but the real test for Oaxtepec would be the next season.
