The Skorpions set the bar on Turin or rather on Beinasco, on the outskirts of the Piedmontese capital, where they will face the Jaguars on Sunday afternoon. The Turin team are a luxury freshman, not only for their lineage, but also for the quality of a roster which sees the return, after their experience in ELF, of Nicholas Dalmasso and Tamsir Seck, respectively quarterback and receiver of an attack that can count on American receiver Adrian Tolbert. The choice to focus on Italians and in particular on young people, including the notable contribution of runner Tommaso Tenconi, has so far produced positive results, net of the defeat suffered at the hands of the Frogs. After a rest session, Varese presents itself as leader of the standings, cohabiting with Ancona, a position that makes Nick Holt's team even more responsible, called upon to perform on par with their first two outings of the season. If the most awaited player, Ryan Griffin, has not disappointed so far, putting together two flawless performances, five touchdown passes, no interceptions and a 65% completion rate, no less credit goes to the defense and the scoring department. receivers where Maclaine Griffin begins to demonstrate a great understanding with his brother and the running backs, the absolute protagonists, on an offensive level, in his debut with Florence. The trip to Piedmont represents the second appointment of a cycle of four "on the road" matches that will pass from Parma, the highly anticipated match against the Italian champions, to culminate in the Milan derby, against the eternal rivals Frogs. The watchword in Beinasco will be concentration, because the hosts, although their results are mixed, have a team that is as young as it is full of talent. If successful, the Skorpions could temporarily find themselves alone at the top of the First Division standings, given the concurrent rest period of the Dolphins.
