Basketball - Men's "DR1" Series. Libertas seeks two golden points in Jewelry

External competition for the Libertas which, tomorrow evening, at 21pm, will face the Mancini Jewelry a MonsummanoThe red and whites of Piochi (photo) are in sixth place in the standings with 28 points tied with Donoratico and Ineos Manufactoring Sei Rose; while their opponents are in third-last place, at 14 and are fighting to try to achieve salvation. A tenth day of the return round of the regular season that the red and whites must absolutely not underestimate, because the play-off they are within reach and achieving the best placement would be very important.

"We will face it – he commented Piochi – a team that last year played in the “C” series, made up of talented and experienced players, but that, this season, is struggling and is in third-last place in the standings. It can, however, count on a quality roster, with Arrabito as the top scorer, an element that can be very dangerous".

"We - adds the coach of the red and whites - will have to be good, as we were in the last home game against Montemurlo, where we were immediately aggressive in defense and attentive on every possession. We had a good week of training and we will do everything to bring home the challenge, even if, away, we encounter some difficulties, but, after what we demonstrated against Montemurlo, I am convinced that we will be able to play a great game even away from the "Palatagliate". The boys have shown that they have talent and that they have all the credentials to do well. I am sure that it will be a good, hard-fought match and that they will give their all as always".

The challenge of the "Palapertini" between Mancini Jewellery Monsummano e Libertas it will be directed by Carlo Contu from Pisa and Davide Cancelli from Livorno. After this race the Libertas will return to the parquet again on Saturday 29 March, at the “Palatagliate” to face Carrara Legends.
