Serie A2 TIM
Castellana stays top after round 17
The top part of the A2 table remained unchanged after round 17. Castellana Grotte stays top thanks to its away win in Sora, which is third. Despite the fact that it was Morelli’s first game as libero (Paolucci injured), Roma got rid of Isernia with ease and consolidates its second position. In fourth place, there is Bologna, which has defeated Santa Croce. Crema had the better of Bassano, while Mantova stays bottom despite a point taken in Città di Castello. Cantagalli’s Massa team severely defeated Bernardi’s team. Gioia del Colle struggled to stop Cavriago’s attack at home.

LUBE BANCA MARCHE MACERATA: Cisolla 9, Paparoni, Raymaekers 8, Omrcen 15, Vermiglio 1, Podrascanin 6, Martino 6, Smerilli (L), Fantin. DNP Bartoletti, Monopoli, Swiderski. Coach. De Giorgi Ferdinando.

Macerata brings the first European joy of 2010 for the Italians. In the first return leg of its group in the Champions League, it swept the Belgium team of Maaseik (25-19, 25-23, 25-20), standing above the others again in the group. This victory means Macerata is one step closer to the qualification in the 8th of final. To be mathematically certain to take part in the knock out stage of the competition, it will have to wait for Wednesday 13 when it will host Budva, Montenegro.
Good news had already come before the game even started with the return of Sebastian Swiderski, back from its Achilles injury that kept him out for five months. Not much to say as Macerata dominated with its serve. Only the second set was tight: at 24-23 though, Maaseik was blocked by the excellent Podrascanin.
