Basketball Series B, defeat against Faenza in the sixth of the season

  • 12 November 2021

An underwhelming performance by our guys, who are defeated by Faenza in the sixth game of the season. Coach Paccariè tries everything, alternating every kind of defense possible, but the shooting night is really colorless and Basket Serie B closes with 4/27 from 3 and 12/29 from 2.

In the first quarter, Faenza plays a solid game and defends well against Luiss’ outside players. The team struggles to find the basket and the game takes a bad turn. The guests finish ahead by 10 with a 17-7 score.

In the second period, ours manage to defend strongly and play a dynamic basketball in attack. Thanks to the superiority in rebounds, we close the game down by 4.

The contact is there, but the game doesn’t take off. The teams defend and dirty the percentages: Faenza leads 47-37. Luiss tries zone pressing and recovers several balls, but can’t find continuity. At the buzzer, the scoreboard says 63-51.

Positive notes, the generosity of D’Argenzio and the race of Buzzi, who is gaining the trust of coach and teammates.

Next match, in Teramo on November 14 to try to move the ranking. Come on guys, let’s not give up!
