He was born in College Basketball Borgomanero il big match who decided the final victory of the Top Group 1 of second Piedmontese phase of the championship U17 Excellence. In 6th and final day of the mini-group of 4 the guests arriving from the province of Novara win the PalaCamagna di Tortona forcing the knockoutAllianz Derthona for 75 66.
Between two teams that jointly led the standings with 6 points after the first 5 days, the Tortonesi had the lightness of having already achieved the mathematical certainty of access to the Final Four for the Piedmontese title last week and above all to the Interregional Groups to continue to cradle the dream of qualifying for the National Finals, while College Basketball was forced to win to achieve the same objectives and not live with anxiety waiting for the last game of the GGS Basketball Project, given that in the event of defeat at the Camagna and the subsequent victory of GGS in the last home match of the GranTorino Basketball Draft would have been displaced from the first two positions and eliminated.
Instead, after a match played on the edge of practically maximum balance between the two teams for three periods, Borgomanero dispelled the fear shortly after the start of the fourth quarter with 4 triples in a row signed by Bertero, Rupil (2) and Pillastrini to touch for the first time the double-digit lead and never to be recovered by the home team, despite attempts to hold on, especially with Armin Korlatovic and Werther Bellinaso.
