The Centenary Cup is the first senior trophy in the history of Teens Biella. The C Gold team, branded Zeta Esse Ti, won the final on Saturday night with Gimini Torino, bent sharply with the score of 92-68. In a Forum closed to the public, things immediately went well for the guys of coach Bertetti, already ahead in the first period by 16 points. From then on, the management of the advantage was possible with the effectiveness of the zone defense and with a good team performance in attack: Dodo Borgialli, with 21 points, was the best scorer but Squizzato’s double-digit evening stood out. and Cena, two former Under 18s of Pallacanestro Biella, who gave a shade of red and blue to the success. Without Castagnetti, on the scoresheet but remained at rest, and De Simone, the very young long-shot Angelino also scored two points.
At the end of the match captain Luca Murta raised the trophy to the sky, becoming the ace of the city cups: he was also on the field in 2014, when the then Eurotrend Biella won the Serie A2 Italian Cup. Biella was missing a success in the men’s field – Teens promotions excluded – since then while the last time a team from the province had won a title dates back to 2019 when it was Bonprix Bfb to win the women’s Serie C Piedmont Cup.
