Edilnol finally welcomes Tj Cromer and challenges the Borgomanero College at the Forum

Tj Cromer, the first of the two Americans from Edilnol to have finally received all the documents to enter Italy, will land at Malpensa at around 16.30. Perhaps he will have time, delays and airport checks permitting, to peek at the very last actions of the second friendly of the season that the rossoblù will play today at the Forum at 17.30. As on Wednesday, the opponent is a Serie B team, the newly promoted College Borgomanero. And as in the first outing of the season in which Biella gave up to Omegna, the result will count for nothing. Coach Andrea Zanchi prefers to focus on how his team puts into practice the theory memorized daily in the gym. The good news is that from Monday it will be possible to work with an extra weight man available: the last season of Cromer, before the sabbatical year that he chose to take to avoid the risks related to the coronavirus, was 2019 / 2020 in Udine, closed with 16 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists per game. For a young team who need certainty in attack, especially in this initial phase, his arrival is a precious boost. It should also be a matter of days for Steven Davis to leave: the hitch for both was caused by the return of passports with visas, sent by post from consulates to limit travel in times of pandemic. In Biella, while waiting for the envelopes to reach the homes of the two players, we could not help but wait, with general manager Damiano Olla to soften the thousandth answer to the same question with a smile: “When do they arrive?”. Even today, like Wednesday evening, the doors of the Forum will be closed to fans. Borgomanero is a newly promoted in B who last year rivaled in C Gold with Teens and in Under 18 with Biella Next, always winning.
