Fourth place for Allianz Derthona at the U15 Winter Cup in Piacenza

Fourth place for Allianz Derthona at the U15 Winter Cup in Piacenza

The Derthona Basketball Lab's activity did not stop between Christmas and New Year's.

While waiting for the second phase of the Next Gen, dedicated to the U19 teams of the 16 Serie A clubs, from 2 to 4 January in Rimini, the black and white club has found a way to strengthen the already strong ties of technical collaboration that bind it to BEA Chieri and Pallacanestro Vado by participating, from 27 to 29 December, in the Winter Cup in Piacenza, dedicated to the Under15 teams.

After the first two victories against Piacenza (110 to 48) and Pistoia (104 to 65), the Tortona team suffered a defeat against Cantù (65 to 72) which forced them to play in the semi-final against the very strong Gallarate (who then won the tournament in the final against Varese), losing 98 to 63.

In the repeat of the qualifying match against Cantù, valid for 3rd/4th place, Pernigotti's boys (assisted by Alberto Nizzola and Vanni Talpo) gave a convincing performance, losing however in the sprint against the Brianza team by 63 to 68.

Below are the players made available by the coach Marco Prati (for Vado) e Franz Conti (for Chieri), joined by some of our most promising youngsters:

Gabriele Montiglio, Manuel Cristiano, Simone Menegatti, Leonardo Calò, Vittorio Beccaria (Chieri) – Jacopo Cepollina, Vittorio Settembri, Luca Cogno (Vado) – Leonardo Quaini, Marco Gabbetta, Grigolo Stefano (Derthona)

A pleasant and stimulating experience to close the calendar year that only confirms the goodness of the ongoing project. There will be plenty of opportunities to repeat the experience.
