After a first round that was really lacking in satisfaction with 8 points won in 12 matches, thanks to only 2 tie-break victories and 4 defeats always in the fifth set, Plus volleyball Sabaudia has decidedly changed course. In the second round, to date, they have gained an impressive 20 points (second behind Fano) thanks to a haul of 7 victories and only 2 defeats.
The wind in the Pontine home has changed thanks to the work done by the technical staff led by coach Nello Mosca, supported by Tony Bove and the on-field experience of Paolo Torre. The team led by opposite player Samuel Onwuelo (seventh in the points table with 429) and spiker Jakub Urbanowicz (19th position with 331 points) is showing all its qualities after a really difficult start. Federico Mazza is 11th in the ranking reserved for winning blocks. Paul Ferenciacsi is confirming himself among the best in receiving in his role and is in 21st position in the special receiving category (weighted average). After a complicated start and alternation in all the races, Mario Catinelli conquered a starting place with excellent performances, alternating with captain Stefano Schettino, managing the team in the best possible way. The contribution of Mattia Della Rosa is fundamental, always ready to enter the race in progress and carve out important spaces when useful. He closed the last match at San Giustino with 10 points, contributing to his team’s victory in the 5th set. Armando De Vito, who was called onto the field permanently from the end of the first round, made his contribution with 34 point blocks. The contribution of our defense minister, Andrea Rondoni, was fundamental, as he always threw his heart beyond the obstacle, gritting his teeth in difficult moments and always pushing the team with his positivity.
