THE OPPONENT – Luiss Roma is shining in 2022, as evidenced by the roadmap of four victories in seven games in the new year, a march that allowed them to leave the play-out area and relaunch to conquer direct salvation. The testimony of the value of the group of coach Andrea Paccariè, good for the umpteenth season at making the most of a team composed only of athletes enrolled at the Luiss Guido Carli University in Rome. A project that has made it possible to play championships as a protagonist and to often reach the playoffs. The external players bring the most points and in fact the best scorers are the playmaker Domenico D’Argenzio with 11.5 points per game (director born in 2001) and Marco Pasqualin with 10.4. The offensive contribution of guard / winger Matja Jovovic with 9.7 is also important. Other experienced athletes who are leading one of the youngest groups of the whole series B (Luiss is first in group C in the ranking of the under employment), are Giorgio Di Bonaventura, former Teramo guard, and winger Marco Legnini , absent in the first leg against the Raggisolaris (match won by Faenza 63-51), arrived in Rome a few weeks ago and immediately entered this reality in the best possible way. Last season the player crossed Faenza with the Empoli shirt. The seniors’ battery is completed by Cesare Barbon, a guard with a good shot from three, the winger Francesco Gellera, and the center Matteo Converso. Among his youngsters, the guards ali Riccardo Murri (2000) and Leonardo Di Francesco (2000), the guard Andrea Zini (2000) and the pivots Francesco Buzzi (2000) and Davide Tolino (2002) stand out.
THE PRE-MATCH – “On Sunday we will play the first of four consecutive games at PalaCattani – underlines the Second Assistant Iacopo Monteventi – hosting Luiss Roma, a team with great qualities and a very low average age: its most experienced player was in fact born in 1996. Luiss is going through a good moment of form as evidenced by the two consecutive victories and the three successes obtained in the five second round matches. Results that are also children of the strength of the group, where there is no protagonist, because all the players give their contribution. We will have to pay particular attention to rebounds, where Roma are very strong, capturing 13 per game, and to the three-point shot, because they shoot 29 per game. The best makers from the bow are Pasqualin and D’Argenzio. It will therefore be a match to be played with the utmost concentration and never like this time do we need the support of our fans who I am sure will not be lacking “.
