Pisa, 3 June 2022 – Nothing to do for the Pisa Women’s Basketballwho, in the final play-off with Laurenziana, in Florence, for a place in the serie B next season, he loses a little after a balanced first half of the race and a Florentine brand start of recovery.
Per Benedictines and companions, less experienced than the hosts, too many shooting errors were fatal, especially in the free range (only 12 free made on 30), the difference in the shots from the bow (3 each by Fiorilli and Casagli for the local 2 only for the Pisane with Benedettini) and the less effective rebounds under the scoreboards, where the PF was much less aggressive than in game two in Pisa.
THE CHRONICLE – In a crowded and noisy building, the girls of Sergio Ferro at the start they suffer the best precision from the Florentine bow, scored with 3 triples, but manage to limit the damage to the tenth (17-12). The second period sees Benedictines and her companions, more enterprising, leaving only 11 points to Laurenziana, scoring 15, with Benedictines, Sgorbini, Beccari, Mercolini e Barbieri.
To rest on the 28-27therefore completely open, the race changes appearance at the start of the second half, with Laurenziana who manages to score with 5 athletes, while the only Margherita Benedettini try to limit the damage (42-35 10 ‘from the end). The final quarter sees the return of the red and white, which from -10 also reach -2, in front of an opponent in evident debt of oxygen, but too many shooting errors, especially from the line, prevent the reunion, and Laurenziana catches with Fiorilli the decisive triple.
Great disappointment of the girls of the president Laura Guerrini at the end of the game: for three points, a goal that was unthinkable only two months ago is gone, which has become more and more reachable, almost within reach, in the last month. However, applause remains for a growing season, in which the club has laid a solid foundation for next season.
