Samantha Prahalis was utterly unstoppable as she dragged Cagliari to a 79-70 win over Orvieto, a result that could be critical at the end of the season. San Martino made it five teams above .500 as they eased past last place Sesto San Giovanni 91-66. Jillian Harmon helped Lucca into sole possession of first place with a 71-61 win over Battipaglia. They are there because Ragusa was stunned 84-68 by Vigarano even though Rebekkah Brunson was dominant. Amber Orrange may have had her best game so far in the win as they look to avoid the danger zone. Parma beat Jenna Smith and Torino 82-56 as both teams fight for spots in the playoffs. Meighan Simmons and Umbertide looked to take advantage of a Venezia team that is focused on another competition, but the visitors fought back to win 75-58. The day closed with a tremendous effort from Cierra Burdick, but Isabelle Yacoubou and Schio still beat Napoli 72-61.
