Lothar Potthoff, the athletic director of MSG Marburg\/Weimar, accompanied the girls to all their competitions and prepared them exceptionally well for this tournament. He was assisted by Carlotta Weber from 6th grade. \u201cThis is a huge success! Of course, the girls wanted to go to Berlin for the national finals. But after some initial disappointment, the joy of finishing in third place now prevails,\u201d the coach summed up. His team was ultimately on the verge of reaching the final when, in the semifinals, they were unfortunately defeated in a penalty shootout by the eventual champions from Gymnasium Oberursel. <\/p>\n
In the group stage, they recorded two wins (4\u20130 against Gerhard-Hauptmann-Schule Wiesbaden and 1\u20130 against Rabanus-Maurus-Schule Fulda) as well as a decisive loss to the favored team from Carl-von-Weinberg-Schule Frankfurt (0\u20137). After missing out on a spot in the final in a penalty shootout against Oberursel, the team was able to muster all its strength once again in the third-place match: The Steinm\u00fchlen girls defeated the Eltville High School 3\u20132, securing the bronze medal in the Hesse championship. Huge congratulations on this extraordinary achievement! \u201cNext year, we\u2019ll compete in Competition Class III with this team and see what we can accomplish,\u201d says Lothar Potthoff, already looking forward to the upcoming competitions. <\/p>\n
