The perfect week for the coach's boys Luca Ansaloni. Three matches between U19 Eccellenza and Serie B Interregionale and as many victories, the last one obtained on Friday evening in senior championship in its own PalaCamagna di Tortona, repeating the blitz of two days earlier at the home of Magic Oleggio Basket and that of Monday on the parquet of Basket Torino in the youth tournament. This time they fell under the blows of the young team Gulliver Supermarkets Derthona è Collegno Basketball, beaten 81 - 72 of 18th day of Division A Conference North West of the fourth national series.
Always ahead in the score from the start of the match, the Bianconeri escaped in the third quarter with a maximum of +20, coinciding with Stefano Conte's further increase in engine rpm in terms of scoring, well supported by Baldi and Tambwe. Collegno doesn't give up and, driven above all by her by far best player of the evening, Tio Tiagrande, falls below the double-digit gap but misses a couple of opportunities to close to -5 at 76-69 with less than three minutes on the clock. Five final points again from MVP Conte (in the photo, celebrated by Ansaloni and the rest of his teammates) give the definitive peace of mind for the 11th victory in 18 races.
A roster that makes Derthona's position increasingly solid within the most noble area of the playoffs, the Play-In Gold, thanks to the current solitary third place with 22 points, at +4 (but with one game more than their opponents) on fifth place which means Play-In Silver, all four rounds from the end of the regular phase, three of which are to be played away. From next, scheduled on the parquet of the vice-leaders Scotti Pavia rice Saturday January 27 21:00 al PalaTreves Pavia.
