As a result, the outcome of the match was still up in the air heading into the two doubles matches and the mixed doubles, since Steinm\u00fchle needed to win at least one of those three remaining matches to secure the victory. The girls\u2019 doubles team achieved this with a commanding victory, allowing Steinm\u00fchle to ultimately secure a well-deserved win with a score of <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Calibri,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"><b>8\u20136<\/b><\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Calibri,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"> .<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size: small\">The second match of the group stage against the school from <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Calibri,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"><b>Bad Vilbel<\/b><\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Calibri,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"> ended with a score of <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Calibri,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"><b>3\u201311<\/b><\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Calibri,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"> . However, against a very strong opponent, the Steinm\u00fchle players demonstrated their potential in many closely contested rallies. With a bit more consistency, one or two matches could have gone differently. To reach the semifinals, our team was now dependent on help from the school in Bad Vilbel. The match between Bad Vilbel and Herborn was surprisingly close for a long time, but in the end, Bad Vilbel prevailed 8\u20136, thereby securing our team\u2019s spot in the semifinals.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"><b>Semifinals:<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Calibri,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size: small\">In the semifinal against the <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Calibri,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"><b>Taunusschule from Bad Camberg<\/b><\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Calibri,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"> , Steinm\u00fchle took a 6\u20132 lead after winning three singles matches convincingly.

Many of the matches in the encounter were of high quality and very exciting. After the first four singles matches, the score was tied at 4\u20134, as both girls had won their matches convincingly, thereby offsetting the points lost in the boys\u2019 singles. Once again, the final three matches would decide the outcome. In both doubles matches, the Steinm\u00fchle players once again demonstrated their full range of skills and gave their opponents no chance with their aggressive, high-pressure tennis.
