After two advances played yesterday, Round 15 of 2023/24 Plusliga continued today with other two games.
In a remake of last season final, Jastrzębski Węgiel needed four sets to win on the field of a Grupa Azoty ZAKSA Kędzierzyn-Koźle who are struggling a lot this season, only at 9th place in the standings with lot of injuries, 1-3 (25:23, 22:25, 22:25, 24:26).
A good news, however, for the winners who regained the top of the standings for which they are fighting an exciting duel against Projekt Warszawa, who yesterday defeated newcomers Częstochowa in four sets too.
In front of more than 2000 home fans, today Norber Huber was named MVP of the match with 17 points to his name through 73% in attack, including 1 ace and 5 of his team’s 5 winning blocks, while top scorer Jean Patry added 19.
Among the hosts, Łukasz Kaczmarek and Bartosz Bednorz scored 17 points each, but they weren’t enough to stop the leaders.
In the second game of the day, an exciting duel between No.5 Trefl Gdańsk and No.4 Asseco Resovia Rzeszów, the hosts celebrated a 3-1 (25:20, 25:23, 31:33, 25:19) great win, able to stop the rivals’ attempt to reopen the game after winning the third set 31-33, lasted as many as 42 minutes!
After this game nothing changes in the current charts, but now Gdańsk, led by MVP Piotr Orczyk, author of 20 points through an impressive 79% in attack, are at -4 from 4th place.
To make the diffrtence also the impressive performance in blocking for the winners, with 16 points from this element (5 each for Kewin Sasak and Patryk Niemiec) compared to Resovia’s 7!
Round 15, the last one of first leg, will continue tomorrow with other three games.
