WK III District Basketball Tournament

It’s all about taking part. With this motto in mind, the youngest basketball players from Steinmühle took the court at the district finals for the Marburg-Biedenkopf district.

Right from the first competition—an all-around event—they had to concede the lead to the other participating teams, which meant that in the actual tournament, they had to start every match trailing by 0–6 points.

However, this did not matter in the final standings against the top three teams, as they proved to be superior.

But in the match for fourth place against Philippinum II, a win was what we needed. Our coach and team manager, Theo Nauheimer, managed to get the team fired up one last time for this final game—and it paid off: Despite trailing 0–6 early on, the Steinmühlen students managed to take a 12–10 lead by halftime, which the boys extended to 22–13 by the end of the game.

The following players took the field:

Henning Hepting, Lennart Holly, Christopher Mewes, Ben Luis Peters, Bruno Schneider, Jonah Schorm, Leo Tzentschke, Luis Ziller, Adriano Doibos
