Vincenzo Mastrangelo is the new Coach of Kemas Lamipel Santa Croce. Mastrangelo, a 52-year-old technician from Gioia del Colle, will be in the tanning town as early as next week. Conquered the Italian Cup and promotion to Serie A2 with Reggio Emilia, Mastrangelo succumbed to the flattery of the red and white. We know the reasons that led the coach Vincenzo Mastrangelo to Santa Croce.

Tell us about the last crazy season in Reggio Emilia.

“It was a season that will be remembered as something exceptional for the whole of Italian volleyball. Most of the Reggio Emilia athletes had never played such important matches, most had little experience in these stages. Since the Santacroce match in December, when we won 3-2, something has changed in the Reggio Emilia players. I considered Santa Croce very strong, winning in that building was a symptom of character. With the victory of the Italian Cup we started planning the championship final to be able to play the Playoffs at best. Everyone was good, from the technical staff to the physiotherapy staff. It has been a long time since no one had managed to win the Cup and the Championship in the same season. I hope Reggio will be able to make the SuperLega ”.

Your future in Santa Croce.

“Contact with the Wolves began four years ago. That 19 December Alberto made me a joke and I took it with me to the signing with Kemas Lamipel. Vice President Alberto Lami treated me very well, I signed a contract that I will bind myself to this reality for two years. There are the optimal conditions to do well, to play volleyball at the highest level. When the market ends we will set goals “.
