Under 16 Excellence – Second place in Tuscany for Davide Pantaleo’s boys
Livorno June 16, 2021
The Under 16 Don Bosco adventure in the Final Four of the “PalaMacchia” ends with a good second place. Davide Pantaleo’s boys first beat Pistoia in the semifinals, where they are good at reacting promptly to the sprint start of the guests, constantly keeping the head of the game, albeit with small margins. The decisive tear comes in the second quarter, in fact all painted in red and blue, thanks to the warm hand of Lamperi and Baroni, with an adjoining qualification for the final the following day.
The final is against Firenze Basketball Academy; a match characterized by a slow start for both teams, with Don Bosco who manages to stay in the wake of his rivals thanks to the precision from the line, despite the physical superiority of the rivals that is felt in the second quarter, so much so that Florence closes the first half of the race over 15 lengths (37-22). In the locker room coach Pantaleo spurs his boys, in the third quarter the fruits are seen in defense – only 11 points granted to rivals – less in attack. The reaction comes in the last period, the rossoblu defense rises, the attack begins to mesh with sharp counterattacks and thanks to some plays by Tomei and Lamperi, Don Bosco arrives at -4, at 54-50, at 50 “seconds from the final siren. Unfortunately, then two errors arrive and Florence, thanks to a triple, by Pinarelli, closes the contest and wins the Regional Title.
