Graziosi’s men finished third of the Valdichiana tournament in Chiusi. Without Casoli and Diamantini cautiously rested, Potenza dominated Tuscania (A2) in its first encounter before inexplicably tumbling against Emma Villas Chiusi (B1). All the teams were tied on points but on the number of set won, Potenza had to make do with third place.
