*** (Finally another) U21-Update ***
After the great win against Belgium, we've played another 5 friendlies.
Luxembourg - Österreich 83 - 121
Nice win with strong inside. Engelmair and Dobner were unstoppable for Luxembourg.
New Zealand - Österreich 120 - 127
First match with U20, therefore a lot of debut-players. Outstanding debut for Berger, playing in Greece, on SG with 32 pts. Also great game for Engelmair with 26 rb. and 21 pts.
Österreich - Slovenija 102 - 124
Slovenija, nr. 46 of the world, wouldn't play U20, so short comeback of our 21-yr old. It didn't help. Dispite the good match of Weiner and Seibt, we've lost 102 - 124. They were just too strong.
Österreich - The Netherlands 90 - 132
My home-nation, too bad we didn't win. They are also just too good. Again a good match of Berger at SG, we will have a lot of fun with him next season...
Österreich - Colombia 115 - 104
Last match of season 34, against a strong team from south america. After a bad first half of the game (both quater lost 25/33 and 24/29), our team stood up to make a good result at the end of the season. 3th. Qt. a slight win with 25-21, but the difference was made in the final quarter, wich we won 41 - 21. As always a great inside game of Engelmair (19 Rb / 14Pts), but this time the guards locked the game. Both Schnitzler (20 Pts / 8 Ass.) and Berger (23 Pts) were excellent this match.
