The biggest shake-up came at the PalaIgor, where Honda Cuneo Granda Volley shocked Igor Gorgonzola Novara 3–2 to grab crucial points in the relegation fight. Bintu Diop powered Cuneo with 26 points, and libero Linda Magnani earned MVP honors after a gritty, all-hands defensive effort.

In other matches, Prosecco Doc A. Carraro Imoco Conegliano beat Bartoccini-Mc Restauri Perugia 3–1, a result that officially confirmed Perugia’s relegation with one round left. Conegliano were pushed late, but closed the fourth set 26–24 to avoid a tie-break. Fatoumatta Sillah led with 22 points and took MVP.

At the top end, Savino Del Bene Scandicci swept Cbf Balducci HR Macerata 3–0 to lock in second place, while Reale Mutua Fenera Chieri ’76 also won 3–0 over San Giovanni in Marignano to move into fourth on their own.

Two more matches went the distance: Vallefoglia edged Monviso 3–2, and Bergamo came back from 0–2 down to beat Firenze 3–2.
