8th Interregional Play-In B – Gallarate comes close to a miracle. Saronno and Sangio are looking to the playoffs

Robur Saronno closes his excellent journey in the Gold phase as a winner while Sangiorgese basketball opposite Gardone, his bête noire, falls again. Gazzada ends the season with a defeat in the sprint against San Miniato, while Gallarate comes close to a miracle.

GALLARATE HERE – BBG comes close to achieving a miracle, dominating far and wide against La Spezia and winning 79-96 against the Ligurians. The Galletti achieved that minimum +17 which would have been enough to reach the playoffs if it weren’t for the fact that Lucca changed gear in the last quarter of the match against Borgomanero, won and extinguished the white and blue hopes. Galletti who bid farewell to the season at their best, however, thanks to a practically perfect performance led by Fioravanti’s 28 points.

GAZZADA HERE – No final bell for Basket7Laghi who surrendered in a sprint to San Miniato 83-80. Now the new era signed by Bruno Bianchi is ready to open for the gialloblu.

HERE THEY WILL BE – After a first half that was all tied, the AZ Saronno in the second half he shows a clearly superior athletic form, scores 52 points, wins in Siena and celebrates by virtually waving the Roburino banner in Piazza del Campo. This time with almost identical 3-point percentages, 7 out of 22 for Siena, 7 out of 21 for Saronno, De Capitani and his teammates win the match thanks to their ability to build counterattacks and volleys by going to the rim a lot and with more men. Saronno ends the match with a superlative 30 out of 45 from 2, equal to 67%, with Quinti 9 out of 12; Beretta 4 out of 7, Pellegrini 3 out of 5 and the young Motta 4 out of 4 to take on the roles that belong to the protagonists. Saronno therefore, which confirms its role as number 1 and team to beat, prepares for the first round of the playoffs in which it will face Lucca.

HERE I BLOOD – Sangiorgese basketballalready sure of the primacy, faces Basketball Gardonese in reworked formation. So between absences (the striker Testa rested, Seba Bianchi only 13 minutes on the pitch), ailments and the many minutes offered by the Sangiorgino technical staff to the less used players, in the end Gardone prevails, certainly animated by superior ranking motivations and more “hunger”. . Sangio is now on a long stand-by awaiting the first suggestive round of the playoffs against Blu Orobica Bergamo led by former coach Marco Albanesi
