The youth team week: Gulliver Derthona's C Gold enhances the sold-out PalaCamagna with a record comeback
400 people. In the stands of dear, old Camagna. On a Friday night. For a kids game Under 19. The golden moment of basketball in Tortona was also vividly represented by the "sold out" of the city arena in the last performance of the youth team in the senior championship of Serie C Gold. And Gulliver Supermercati Derthona repaid their supporters as best they could, with a record comeback that started from -11 with 3 minutes to go and culminated with the victory in extra time. Against Arona, coach Federico Tosarelli's Bianconeri confirmed themselves as specialists in miracles by restarting - with striker Errica decisive in the "remuntada" of regulation and the Baldi-Tandia play-pivot axis in overtime - a match now lost and bringing home a golden success in the race for promotion to the new Interregional Serie B, which is accessed by the 4 winners of the first playoff round and the winner of the subsequent "final four" among the four losers in the inaugural round. Victory number 14 in 23 games keeps the Bianconeri in fifth place in the standings with three rounds to go, which promises to be hot starting from Saturday evening's away match at the home of the third in the class, CO.GA.L Amatori Savigliano.
Even in their relevant youth championship U19 Excellence they got the better of it in a sprint, beating the resistance of Germani Brescia thanks to two triples from the usual Errica that made the difference at 65 all at the start of the last minute. The success keeps the flame of hope of entering the top three going to the National Final alive, a hypothesis that is however difficult to achieve given the need to win both the last matches and hope for the double misstep of Blu Orobica Bergamo, third at +2 on the team by Luca Ansaloni.
All 'U17 Excellence the first away match in the inter-regional group also goes badly, on the pitch of Stars Basket Bologna comes a defeat of 3 points which however showed positive signs for the rest, which on Sunday at 18pm will see the arrival at the PalaCamagna of Umana Reyer Venezia, undefeated after the first two rounds of the 6-a-side mini-group.
THEU15 Excellence this Friday, however, a large portion of the possibilities of directly accessing the inter-regional concentrations will be played out: after the latest statements regarding Turin's CUS and 5 Pari, the Bianconeri expected at Pall's home. Moncalieri gives a real play-off for the third and last available place in the Title Group which gives access to the interzone.
In the "consolation" group of the second Cup phase theU14 Gold easily beat Sisport Torino and ended the first leg at the top of the table tied with CUS Torino with 4 wins and 1 loss.
