Round 18 will end on Tuesday night with CMC Romagana versus Latina. Given Padova’s win in the derby against Verona and the points taken by Monza against Perugia, Romagna has to keep gathering valuable points to stay in the race for the playoffs. But it won’t be easy to take points for a fourth consecutive game because Latina has quality players like experienced setter Daniele Sottile and the surprise of the season: German spiker Simon Hirsch, who had an excellent season in the second division last year before doing as well at the level above this season. He was named MVP of January and will receive his award before the game.
