  • Former Molloy Basketball Star John Petrucelli Enjoys Success in the Italian Basketball League

Former Molloy Basketball Star John Petrucelli Enjoys Success in the Italian Basketball League


Former Molloy basketball star John Petrucelli, who graduated in 2014 and played professionally in the NBA’s G League, recently enjoyed success in the Italian Basketball League.  Here are his thoughts on a milestone win for his team:

"Playing with Germani Brescia in Italy has been an unbelievable experience. It has brought me to a country I’ve always dreamed of being in, while allowing me to play the sport I love at a high level.  This past weekend we won the Italian Cup, which is a mid-season tournament for the top eight teams in the league. We went into the tournament as an 8 seed and had to beat the 1, 4, and 2 seeds. The Italian cup is a huge deal culturally, and has never been won in Brescia’s history. It was a special feeling to be able to bring the cup to Brescia and make history."
