Victories against Latina and Virtus Roma relaunched Pallacanestro Ruvo’s ambitions in the National B basketball championship. With the goal of the playoffs firmly in sight, there is a short-term goal to try to achieve: qualification for the next Final Four of the Italian Cup. The margin, however, is very small. In fact, to get the pass, Ruvo must first close the two-point gap with Montecatini, the team that follows league leaders Roseto, and then hope for results from other fields. Five teams are competing for only one available place and Juve Caserta will arrive at “PalaColombo” on Sunday. Trying to achieve important goals should be normal for Ruvo: coach Ralola’s words.
An antipodal situation for the San Severo Basketball team that, after a double-faced December, hopes to find the right continuity to avoid catastrophic situations at the end of the season. Missteps with Chieti and Jesi did not cancel the six points obtained in the first weeks of December, but to achieve safety Massimo Bernardi’s men need concrete and the presence of a direct competitor like in Cassino yellow and black can do no wrong.
