In the women’s A2 series championship, PfUmbertide still falls, losing the home match against league leaders Udine. Staccini’s girls sell dearly against the Friulians who ultimately prevail 56-65. Umbertide, fifth from last in the standings, who now, in a terrible phase of the calendar, will return to the field on Saturday in Bolzano against the other pacesetter of the group.
Sisas Pallacanestro Perugia never stops. Coach Posti’s team also beats Umbertide in the derby. A 53-46 which allows the red and whites to remain in command arm in arm with Nico Basket’s Pistoia team who beat Livorno with a clear 72-42. On Saturday Sisas Pallacanestro Perugia will be on stage in Livorno, while the Nico Basket girls will be busy in Lucca. Bitter defeat for Pink Terni defeated 35-52 by Lucca. Not a good time for the Terna team, still stuck in fourth-to-last place. Golden victory for Ceprini Orvieto who wins 58-54 and climbs the rankings. Next round on Sunday will see Umbertide challenge Siena at the PalaMorandi, while Orvieto will take the field on Saturday in Senigallia. Also on Saturday it’s also Pink Terni’s turn to play in Prato.
