In its last test match before its league debut, Potenza was severely defeated 3-0 by Ortona. The absence of spiker Casoli and middle blocker Quarta were heavily felt. Potenza offered some spells of excellent volleyball but they were only flashes. Daniele Moretti really hurt Potenza, especially on the serve and in the big moments, while Michalovic kept the scoring going for the visitors with 21 points.
