The Fiorenzuola Bees are back on the field at PalArquato in Castell’Arquato hosting Goldengas Pallacanestro Senigallia in the week that followed the change at the helm in the yellow and blue house, which they embraced again coach Simone Lottici.
The record
Preti sets the PalArquato crowd on fire right away with two consecutive triples from the forward that make it 8-5 in the 3′ minute; Pozzetti responds from the corner with an open shot of 10-10, with Valle imitating him by opening a break from 0-8 always from the corner. 10-15 at 6′.
The most inspired player in the first quarter of the Bees is undoubtedly Preti, who reaches 10 personal points in 6 minutes, with the game becoming frenetic in both halves. At the end of time it is Caverni in the third half who impacts the score at the end of the first quarter on 22-22.
In the second quarter the hands are quite cold in the first half; King with a great defense and counterattack marks 28-28 in the 15th minute, Caverni launches a triple in semi-transition in the 16th minute (32-30).
Neri with a far from simple semi-hook brings Senigallia forward, also helped by Giacomini’s recovery and winning counter-attack, but Casagrande brings back a good game in complete draw in the 19th minute with a triple from the corner. 37-37.
Giacomini first misses the triple, then captures the rebound and has time to score on the second attempt, but Giacchè writes 40-41 with the triple at the end.
Second half
The triple with the hand in the face of a possessed Giacomini gives two possessions ahead to Filippetti’s team in the 22nd minute. 44-50. Once again Giacomini from the arc confirms himself in a competitive trance and takes his personal points to 25 in the 24th minute. 46-55 and timeout for coach Lottici.
Preti creates and makes a triple that rekindles PalArquato, with Fiorenzuola good at staying on his feet despite the violent blows of a Senigallia in pure confidence (51-58 in the 27th minute); the Giallobl wave arrives at the turn of the 28th minute, with a triple by Magrini from the corner that brings the Bees back to -2 and forces the Senigallia bench to time out at 56-58.
Lemmi scores from 4 meters on the developments of the cross-country throw-in, with Senigallia who manages to stay ahead by 6 lengths at the last long rest. 58-64.
Pozzetti at the opening of the last quarter makes a fade away which is worth his first points but at the same time one of the best baskets of the evening; However, Fiorenzuola still has the ”garra” to return from a distance, with Ricci’s place and Casagrande’s triple who write 63-66 in the 33rd minute.
Magrini nails Pozzetti with a devastating block, with the match becoming even more intense if possible, with both teams fighting for every loose ball.
Preti with his back to the basket scores the equalizer at 67 in the 37th minute, with a 3-minute mini-overtime that starts at PalArquato.
Neri scores the triple following which a technical foul is called on Giorgi, the fifth personal one who ousts him from the match. Caverni brings the Bees back to -1 in the 39th minute with a dribble – stoppage and shot that is anything but trivial. 70-71.
Ricci makes 2/2 to the free throws, Musci instead 1/2. It’s overtime at 72-72.
Overtime sfrortunato
In extra time, the ball weighs like a boulder, with the teams scoring 1 point each in the first 2 minutes; Giacomini reaches 30 with the triple in transition for 73-76. Gnecchi makes another triple for the guest +6 less than 120 seconds from the end, with an Everest to climb for the Bees. 75-81.
Fiorenzuola tries until the end with Preti and Magrini, but Giacomini completes an absolute level test by conquering the PalArquato from Senigallia. 83-88
