Liofilchem continues to fly after having conquered the PalaColombo in Ruvo di Puglia with full merit, achieving 13 consecutive victories in the championship out of as many matches played but above all winning on yet another very difficult parquet against one of the best equipped teams in the category.
In front of over 150 Rosetan fans (fantastic for all 40 minutes), Roseto shows off yet another important performance of this championship, beating a never tamed Ruvo, and moving to +8 from the second (the two Montecatini and Ruvo di Puglia).
A difficult, intense match was expected and so it was in fact: the hosts were coming off the beautiful victory in Chiusi, and despite a first part of the match in favor of the biancazzurri, Ruvo did not lose his composure, on the contrary, with a super third period he came back forcefully with a super Jackson; the usual Aukstikalnis to burn the retinas and then in the final Prof Sacchetti stepped up to the plate with a sidereal triple from the corner to give his team the victory.
Best scorer Lukas Aukstikalnis with 25 points, 7/11 from heavy shooting and superior category plays, 12 and 5 rebounds for Sacchetti with a perfect 3/3 from 6.75, 11 each for Edo Tiberti and Guaiana (also 17 rating ); Worth mentioning are Traini’s 5 points on his return after missing 3 matches.
Next Sunday (1 December) away match again: in Salerno against the former players Stanic and Mei.
