Basketball: Rodez too strong for Toulouges

Third victory in a row for Rodez basket Aveyron who won 99-74 against Toulouges, this Saturday evening on behalf of the 20th day of National 3.

At the Ginette-Mazel gymnasium, Matija Sagadin’s men left the Toulougiens no chance. Indeed, the Ruthénois made an almost perfect start to the match by stifling their opponents, whether in defense or attack. In particular thanks to the unstoppable Lucas Guirao, author of 27 points in the first period out of 34. “We put a big intensity on entry, we knew that they were a very physical team opposite. We didn’t let ourselves be trapped”, testified Matija Sagadin.

In the second period, the red and yellow did not let go. They continued to develop their game while mastering their subject matter. Despite the absences of Dolapo Gaji, whose license is no longer valid due to an OQTF, and Valentin Gelin, injured, the Ruthenians showed character to clinch this success at home. And a great victory that satisfies the coach: “It’s a team victory, all week we were told that it was going to be tough without Gelin and without Gaji. But I’m very proud of the guys because they showed that we are a close-knit team, who has character and is level.”
