At the Saint-Léonard hall, Friday evening began with very bad news: Roberto Kovac will have to undergo surgery. The Ticino shooter, injured in the knee since the start of the championship, will be absent from the courts for around 5 months.
Despite this bad news, Olympic did the job against the Starwings, thanks in particular to an offensive festival.
It was Arnaud Cotture (17 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists) who was voted best player in the Friborg ranks.
13 3-point baskets
Against the Starwings, all 12 players on the scoresheet scored at least one basket. Special mentions to 3 men: Arnaud Cotture, Natan Jurkovitz and Ross Williams. The American rookie, who is only 1.78 meters tall, could well become the darling of the Friborg public: 6 3-point baskets scored against the Starwings and contagious energy for his teammates.
Match statistics
Thanks to this success, Friborg Olympic will be able to enjoy its weekend off with the feeling of accomplishment, having 6 victories in 6 matches.
Standings
The month of November promises to be very tough with duels against Massagno, Geneva and Vevey. But after the slap suffered in the Super Cup against the Ticino at the beginning of October, the team, which underwent many changes during the summer, is being built little by little.
We get to know each other and we grow together
Thibaut Petit, coach of Friborg Olympic:
And for its next duel, Friborg Olympic will travel to Massagno next Saturday.
All Friborg Olympic matches can be followed live on Frapp and on RadioFr.
