Big matches are decided on details. It’s not enough to stay in the wake until the last seconds to take home all the stakes. Ruvo gives way to league leaders Roseto, who continues their unbeaten run in the National Serie B basketball championship. In the final 79-84, the former Sassari player Brian Sacchetti took care of unraveling the problem with a triple from the corner in a balanced situation a handful of seconds from the siren. Coach Rajola’s team had also managed to get back on track after the long interval, but Roseto’s greater clarity made the difference. The Abruzzo people thus fly to +6 on Ruvo, who remains in second place with 18 points in the company of the two teams from Montecatini.
There is also nothing to be done for the San Severo Basketball team, which after the victory over Latina is in a losing streak of four games. The yellow and blacks’ approach was good, especially in the first two quarters, then Chiusi inevitably raised the engine revs, leaving coach Bernardi’s team little margin to react. The final speaks for itself: 69-90. San Severo remains in penultimate place with just 4 points: too small a haul to hope for direct salvation, now increasingly a chimera.
