In Siena, in spite of the negative result, the young stars of Potenza did an excellent job while their outside hitter Federico Moretti was out of the line-up as he decided to take care of a niggling hand injury.

“We did everything we could in the last game – said coach Gianluca Graziosi – The boys did well but it was a tough game against an experienced team and a full roster at their disposal, two rosters even, given the quantity and quality of the players they have. We tried to trouble them as much as we could. But this is good experience for the boys. I expect them to bounce back against Brescia, regardless of who is lined-up”.
