Regular Season Round 20: Taranto - Alcamo 75-53

Date: March 7, 2012
Leader Taranto delivered the eighteenth victory on Wednesday night. This time they crushed 11th ranked Alcamo (3-17) 75-53. The hosts trailed by 2 points after first quarter, but they stormed back to get the 4-point lead at the halftime and eventually won the game 75-53. Taranto forced 24 Alcamo turnovers. Worth to mention a quality performance of American center Kia Vaughn (193-87, college: Rutgers) who helped to win the game recording 12 points and 9 rebounds and international forward Simona Ballardini (181-81) who added 18 points during the contest. Polish center Patrycja Gulak-Lipka (192-82, college: Massachusetts) responded with 10 points and 5 rebounds and Jamaican power forward Vanessa Gidden (193-85, college: Hofstra) scored 8 points and 7 rebounds. The winner was already known earlier in the game, so both coaches allowed to play the bench players saving starting five for next games. Taranto (18-2) have an impressive seven-game winning streak. Defending champion maintains first position. Loser Alcamo dropped to the bottom place with 17 games lost. Taranto will meet at home CA Faenza (#7) in the next round where they are favorite. Alcamo will play against Cagliari CUS (#11) and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
