In Mirandola, he was a key player in ErmGroup Altotevere’s 3-0 victory. Simone Marzolla of Chioggia, meanwhile, was six points shy of 1,300 career points, but with his 18, he surpassed that milestone; he now stands at 1,312, of which 1,269 came in A3 and the remaining 43 in A2. With his two aces, he’s now at 75. A nice gift the opposite big man gave himself for his 26th birthday, which he turned just last Saturday, November 15th, the day before the match. The last three matchdays have provided a clear indication: Marzolla is a reborn player, or at least regenerated. “Yes, the first two matches of this championship helped me regain my game and confidence,” the player commented, “and now that I’ve rediscovered them, I hope to carry them forward.” His story spanned two years: from when he ended his season well ahead of schedule on December 10, 2023, in the match against Palmi, to the L4/L5 microdiscectomy surgery he underwent the following March, from his return in October 2024 to his current performances. “We’re building on the three good games we’ve won, thinking that next Sunday we have a very important one.”
