La SuperConveniente Ragusa sfida Castellaneta, in palio punti importanti in trasferta

The SuperConvenient Virtus Ragusa is back on the road for the eighth round of the return leg of the Serie B Interregionale, group F. Tomorrow, at 5 PM, the team led by coach Di Gregorio will be playing at the Tensostatico di Castellaneta against Valentino Basket, in a match that puts heavy points on the line for the race to the top.

The Ragusa team arrives at the appointment strong from their home victory over Mola, which allowed them to bounce back after three losses in the previous four outings. In the standings, the Iblean team shares second place with 30 points with Ondatel Matera, while Viola Reggio Calabria has returned to the top thanks to a narrow victory in the early match against Corato.

For the biancazzurri, it will also be an opportunity to regain their away win, absent since January 25, when they conquered the court of Adria Bari. Castellaneta comes in with a record of 9 wins and 11 losses.

In the last round, the Puglia team suffered a bitter defeat at Corato (71-69), but at home, they remain a particularly dangerous opponent: coach Luisi's group has achieved three consecutive home victories against Molfetta, Mola, and Milazzo, and has not lost at the Tensostatico since January 11, when Brindisi prevailed.

In the first leg, at the PalaPadua, Virtus won 87-80 after a comeback from -16, setting the stage for another balanced matchup.

Statistically, the home team can count on Samuel Ojo, the top scorer with 15.4 points per game, Contini (13.7 points and 8.3 rebounds, second in group F for average rebounds), and Raul Diaz, who averages 11.7 points per game.

Among the seasonal protagonists of the Ragusa team stands out Brown, the leading scorer of the group with an average of 21.7 points, also first for efficiency rating (23.6) and among the most effective in two-point shooting (59%). Ragusa will again be without Adeola, who will serve the second game of his suspension.

Tip-off at 5 PM: the referees will be Anselmi from Ruvo di Puglia and Procacci from Corato.
