Two individual victories, three runner-up finishes, and a team triumph marked the opening of the winter archery season for the Arcieri Castiglionesi at an event in Montalcino.
Nine Archers Compete at Montalcino Season Opener
The Castiglionesi club sent nine athletes to the tournament hosted by the Arcieri del Parce di Sant’Albino in Montalcino. The opening fixture brought immediate success across multiple divisions, establishing a strong early-season benchmark for the roster.
Lorenzoni and Mucci Claim First Place Victories
Francesca Lorenzoni led the individual charge by claiming first place in the senior women’s recurve division. In the senior men’s compound division, Francesco Mucci secured the top step of the podium with a victory in his category. Three club members added runner-up finishes: Fabio Menci, Laura Nuti, and Elia Botti each took second place in their respective events.
Master Recurve Team Secures Top Honors
The club added a third major win through its master recurve team. The squad, consisting of Fabio Menci, David Pantini, and Maurizio Signorini, combined forces to capture first place in the team competition. For Signorini, the event marked a notable debut as he wore the Arcieri Castiglionesi jersey in competition for the first time, immediately contributing to a winning squad.
Developmental Results Shape Upcoming Calendar
Rounding out the traveling group, David Pantini also competed in the individual tournament alongside teammates Jacopo Bennati and Francesco Mencarini.
