Basketball, in women's C series PF Pisa wins in Fucecchio and finds Prato in the play-offs

Pisa, 24 March 2025 – The last day of the regular season of the championship series C queue quietly for the Pisa Women's Basketball, which clearly asserts itself in Fucecchio, on the field of the bottom team of the group. The success of Benedettini and her teammates, with the simultaneous victory of Prato at the home of US Affrico Firenze, allows the girls to coach De Filippis to close at seventh place in the final ranking, thanks to the difference in baskets (+2) in the direct clashes with the Florentines, and to face the Pink Prato Basketball in the first round of play-off.

THE REPORT – The match was a red and white monologue, with a good overall performance by all the girls, who started off on the right foot in the first period, which ended 18-4, and then went to halftime with a reassuring 31-15. Upon returning to the court after the long break, the Pisa Women's Basketball team delivered the final knockout blow, with an eloquent partial of 27-3 in the third period, which left no escape for the home team (18-58). The last quarter in fact only served to consolidate the final score, which saw De Filippis' athletes leave the court with a 46-point advantage (30-76).

VALUES – Excellent proof of Garruto (17 points), Nests (14) Selmi (12) Turkish (12) and Gouges (10) in double figures, with coach De Filippis trying to vary the defensive and attacking schemes in view of the decisive subsequent matches.

NEXT MATCH – The Pisa Women's Basketball team therefore flies to the play-offs, avoiding a direct clash with the top of the class, Pallacanestro Montecatini, which, although in decline in performance, is currently a difficult opponent to beat. In the first round, the red and whites will face the Cestistica Rosa Prato, very fearsome, even if defeated by De Filippis' girls in the home match two weeks ago, thanks to a very convincing performance. The challenge will be the best of three games, with game one at Prato, probably Sunday March 30, with a time to be established.
