Subsequent
the senior team competed the Neuwied Rockland Raiders. This match was
thought to stabilize the 2nd rank . But it turned out to
be different.
The
Raiders showed up with 18 members only, whereas the FSV
Trier-Tarforst Wolverines were present with 30 members that day, but
still they fought like they were a lot more.
From
the very beginning the Raiders showed, that they were not willing to
except their last weeks defeat and put the Wolverines Defense under
hard pressure. Until then the FSV Tarforst Wolverines Defense was
able to stop the efforts of the Rockland Raiders early.
But
the FSV Wolverines Offense had to compete with a strong Neuwied
Defense. Although Hamelmann was able to make a few Yards frequently,
the Raiders concentrated on stopping him.
So
until halftime there were a lot of changes in right of attacking and
defense.
Shortly
before the 2nd quarter was over, the Rockland Raiders made
it up to 5 Yards to the Wolverines endzone by a nice pass and a foul
against the Wolverines. In their 3rd try the Raiders
scored their first points, but the TPC was prevented.
Score
at breaktime was 0:6.
The
2nd halftime started and one thought the Wolverines would
continue playing like they did in the week before.
Good
Runs and passes took them close to the Raiders endzone, but they
needed 4 tries to score their first points with Georg Hamelmann. The
TPC was achieved by Runningback Johannes Gruber and they led 8:6.
Right
after that the Wolverines Defense was no able to stop the drives and
passes of the Raiders in time , and therefore the Raiders gaind
leadingship with 8:12. In the last quarter they scored another
touchdown. The Raiders won this game with score of 8:18.
“ Today
the Defense clearly lost the game, simple runs and passes have not
been stopped in time. The tackles were put so bad, that it was easy
to bypass them and this is what made us lose. “, says Headcoach
Georg Hamelmann.
Upcoming
Sunday the FSV Tarforst Wolverines will meet the PST Stampers, who
are planning on playing a “Perfect Season” this time and try to
climb into a better league.
Kickoff,
as always, 3 pm, home stadium, Trier-Tarforst.
