Regular Season Round 14: Catania Alfa - Valmontone 95-77
Date: December 29, 2018
We cannot really consider it an upset in the game between close teams when 14th ranked Valmontone (3-9) was defeated on the road by fifteenth ranked Catania Alfa (3-11) 95-77 on Saturday. Catania Alfa outrebounded Valmontone 43-30 including 28 on the defensive glass. They shot the lights out from three sinking 14 long-distance shots on high 63.6 percentage. The best player for the winners was naturalized Bulgarian guard Georgi Sirakov (187-92, agency: Interperformances) who scored 28 points. DR Congolese forward Joseph Vita-Sadi (198-97) chipped in a double-double by scoring 10 points and 16 rebounds. Five Catania Alfa players scored in double figures. Eric Ruiu (200-97, agency: Players Group) produced 25 points and 5 rebounds and the former international power forward Luca Bisconti (208-82, agency: SPORTlab Agency) added 9 points and 9 rebounds respectively for the guests. Both coaches used bench players which allowed the starters a little rest for the next games. Catania Alfa moved-up to fourteenth place in B, which they share with 3 other teams. Loser Valmontone keeps the fourteenth position with nine games lost. Catania Alfa will face higher ranked Cuore Napoli (#9) on the road in the next round and they do not belong to the favorites in that game.
