Fourth victory in a row and third place achieved in the standings. There Interregional Serie B of the Gulliver Supermarkets Derthona Tortona hits the full loot at PalaCamagna against Magic Oleggio Basketball in recovery of the 6th day of Division A Conference North West of the fourth national senior championship. All this just twenty-four hours after the tough battle won in U19 Eccellenza on the Don Bosco Crocetta Torino pitch.
Returning to the pitch as a top scorer for the Bianconeri Nicholas Errica (in the photo, shooting during the match), who scored 20 after more than a month of absence due to injury, including the triple of 85-79 which rejected the comeback attempt with 13" left by the guests, led above all by the eternal Andrea Pilotti, born in 1980, and Giovanni Ianelli. After a good part of the first half spent chasing the guests, who reached a maximum of 10 points ahead, the powerful break at the beginning of the third quarter by the snipers Errica and Stefano Conte, authors of 21 of the 23 Tortona points of the period, combined with the irrepressible plays near the basket by Andrija Josovic, create the double-digit gap that the guests try to close up to 82-79 signed by Borsani's penetration, before Errica makes the credits roll with the aforementioned fifth bomb of his match.
Gulliver's success also represents the tenth consecutive of the U19 Eccellenza group between the senior, youth and Next Gen Cup championships and above all it lifts the team into the top three in the standings - an amazing result for a team made up entirely of kids born in 2004 or younger - , which with a balance of 6 wins and 3 losses takes Campus Varese on 12 points, -2 from second place in Pall. Pavia 1933 and -4 from the solitary leaders Robur Basket Saronno.
In the next round, the penultimate first leg, away to Corneliano d'Alba against bottom team Novipiù Campus Piemonte, still without a win after the first nine matchdays. Tap-off at 18pm on Saturday 25 November.
