Towards the Final Four of Supercoppa 2018, Kovacevic and Russell available

Itas Trentino made today at Blm Group Arena a mid-week traning session with twelve of the thirteen players of the new roster. Starting from today Uros Kovacevic and Aaron Russell, who arrived in Trento on Tuesday, will be available as well.
The two spikers, who played versus each other on Sunday night in Torino for the Final for the third place of the World Cup 2018 (Usa-Serbia 3-1), regularly participated to the first seasonal training session with Angelo Lorenzetti and will do the same again on Thursday October 4th as well, when the coach from Marche will be able to count on Lisinac as well, and will so have the whole roster at his disposal.
“I’m happy to finally be in Trento, this represents a new step in my career: I want to live this experience at its best and to improve day by day together with the team - these were the first words of Aaron Russell after his arrival in the city - . Itas Trentino has many high-level players, who I faced many times as opponents; the Final Four of Supercoppa in Perugia will come very soon but we still have the chance to prove our value until the end. The just finished World Cup didn’t only give me a Bronze Medal but it also taught me a lot: especially how to live difficult moments and how to deal with the stress”.
“We played our best volleyball in the World Cup right versus Giannelli’s, Candellaro’s and Nelli’s Italy - said instead Uros Kovacevic - ; our regret is that after that match we have not been able to show that high level again and the fourth place is a result which can’t really make me happy. I wish to reach higher results with Itas Trentino, a team which further improved its quality during the summer.
We restart playing versus Perugia; each of us wants to change the result of the previous match”.
