It will be Rinascita Lagonegro, the first opponent of Avimecc Modica in the first round of the promotion play-offs.
The Lucanian team of Waldo Kantor, in fact, despite the defeat in three sets on the field of the leader Sorrento, in the last of the regular season, finished in fourth place in the standings with 37 points, 4 more than the white and blues of Enzo Distefano who, by winning in Gioia del Colle, classified in fifth place.
Lagonegro, therefore, will have the advantage of playing the eventual game 3 at home. The challenge between the Lucanian sextet and Avimecc, will perhaps be the most balanced of this first round of play-offs. Two teams that this season boast a victory each. In the first leg, in fact, at the “PalaRizza” it was the “Galletti” who won in four sets, while in the return leg at Villa D’Agri Lagonegro won with the same result.
Coach Enzo Distefano in his second year on the bench of Avimecc Modica with which he has always hit the play offs and this year well in advance and improving the position in the standings it is time to take stock before the start of the play offs.
“We closed the regular season on a high – says Enzo Distefano – and I have no regrets for what we have done, except for not being able to start the season with the full roster.
