Captain Alessandro is very close to the 500 spikes in the Serie A. He is just 8 away from this new record for him, which he could reach on Saturday night against Mondovì, hopefully with the victory as well.

“This will bring me that extra motivation – said Tondo – I’ll do my best to reach this target, even if I really want to do more than what I’ve been bringing to the team so far in this beginning of season. Unfortunately, we had to deal with injuries and that prevented us from getting a good feeling between us on court. And the fact Marchiani was missing in pre-season is clearly one of the main reasons why we’re not playing at our best yet. Besides, with the players out, at times we can’t even train 6 on 6”.
