    Athlete of the week


    Attention-grabbing these
    days is the ongoing European Women’s Handball Championship, jointly hosted by
    Slovenia, North Macedonia and Montenegro. In a fixture counting towards the
    first round as part of main Group II, Romania went against Spain. 10 seconds from
    time, the scoreboard displayed a 27-all draw. In the last attacking bout,
    Romanian inter Cristina Neagu sent the ball to Bianca Bazaliu, placed at the center
    of the court. It took the latter a powerful, unstoppable, last-gasp 15-meter throw
    to defeat Spanish goalkeeper Maddi Aalla and turn the fate of the game to the benefit
    of her team, securing a 28-27 win for Romania. According to a post of the European
    championship’s official site, ehfeuro.eurohandball.com, with a speed of 114.98
    km/H, Bianca’s throw was the competition’s fastest, on a par with a throw by Slovenia’s
    Ana Gros.


    Bianca Bazaliu’s otherwise
    unexpectedly successful throw, so precise and so forceful, prompted Radio Romania
    International to designate her the Athlete of the week.


    1.81 meter-meter tall and weighing
    71 kilograms, Bianca Maria Bazaliu was born on July 30, 1997 in Slatina, a town
    in Southern Romania. Bianca is an inside-left and centre player. She began her
    career with LPS Slatina.
    So far, Bazaliu has played for CSM Bucharest, Corona Brașov, Podravka
    Koprivnica and Gloria Bistrița. In 2014, Binca Maria Bazaliu won the world
    title in Macedonia with Romania’s juniors’ team. Back then Bianca scored 76
    goals and was the competition’s second-best scorer. As an inside-left player, Bianca
    received favorable votes for the tournament’s dream team. Since 2016 she has
    been playing for Romania’s national seniors’ team, for which she scored 3
    goals. Bianca Bazaliu’s record as a club handballer includes a European title,
    in 2016, and two bronze medals, in 2017 and 2018. Bianca’s record also includes
    4 Romanian champion titles and 3 editions of Romanian Cup in women’s handball. Bianca
    Bazaliu also played a Romanian Cup and a Romanian Supercup final. (EN)

    Romanian women’s handball teams’ run this year in the Champions League’s group stage has so far been unprecedented. Bucharest teams Rapid and CSM, after five rounds have a no-defeat record in the competition. This past weekend, Rapid and Montenegro’s Buducnost Podgorica drew, 30-all, while Romania’s vice-champion team, CSM, trounced Czech opponents Banik Most, 40 to 15. Top scorer in both fixtures was Rapid’s Sorina Grozav. Reason enough for Radio Romania international to designate Sorina the Athlete of the week.



    In Rapid’s away game in Podgporica, Sorina Grozav scored 7 goals. Sorina’s performance was paralleled only by her teammate, the world vice champion with the Spanish team in 2019, Marta Lopez Herrero. Rapid’s two other Spanish handballers, Ainhoa Hernández and Alicia Fernández, scored 5 and 3 goals, respectively. Also three goals scored the French Alexandra Lacrabère, while Eliza Buceschi scored twice. In Bucharest, CSM scored 40 goals against Czech opponents Banik Most, with no less than 14 handballers proving their mettle in the game. Cristina Neagu scored 5 goals, while Mihaela Mihai and Crina Pintea scored four goals each.



    Sorina Grozav was born on May 27, 1999, in Ramnicu Valcea, into a family of athletes. Her mother is Romanian handball legend Mariana Tîrcă, who boasts 335 caps for the national squad, for which she scored 2043 goals, a world record for a handball player at national level. Sorina initially played as a junior, for the Power Systems College in Ramnicu Valcea, the town where a Women’s Handball National Excellence Centre was established. As a senior handball player, Sorina made her debut at 16, with Corona Brasov. In 2021, she was an on-loan handballer for Rapid Bucharest, yet this year, the club offered Sorina Grozav a permanent contract. In 2016, Sorina Grozav was officially summoned, for the first time in her career, for a national seniors’ team game counting towards the Carpati Trophy in Cluj Napoca. Sorina Grozav is an inside-left handball player. (EN)
