Last weekend the volleyball pros at Hershing could learn something from Hatching’s brilliance. Both clubs, WWK Wallis vom Emmersee and TSV Hatching Munich, met German champions Berlin at home, Hatching on Friday and Hersching on Sunday. It was the Hatchinger team that took a set from the Capital over-team – only the third this season. So while he can proudly look back at 1:3 (25:22, 9:25, 17; 25, 20:25) and his recent upward trend (he finished the season in the final game against Giesen) secured his first win), Hershing lost his game against Berlin at Nikolauschelle 0:3 (23:25, 23:25, 19:25).
Of course, to be fair, Berlin did not display their strongest formation in the first set against Hatchinger, but player Sergej Grenkin or Diagonalman Benjamin Patch came later to defeat Gali Hatchinger, who also led in the middle of the fourth set. Did. To show your limits. But while serving in particular, Junior showed a strong performance in front of 100 spectators – 300 would have been allowed in the hall. However, Grankin was spared the entire game in the game against Hershing.
Things did not go so well for the Hershinger team, even though their coach Max Hauser recognized a positive approach after only 79 minutes, especially in the serve, in the acceptance and also with the middle blockers. But it was also the eighth loss in the twelfth game of the season; Nor had he achieved a set victory that would have been well deserved. The first sentence was sealed by Berlin’s strong diagonal man Benjamin Patch, the second, of all things Hersching’s strongest man, Captain Tim Peter – with poor service.
With 15 points total, 65 percent positive sentiment, an impressive 83 percent attack rate and four blocks, Peter played his best game of the season, which should reassure his coach. Because of a muscle injury in the game against Friedrichshafen in early November, Max Hauser had to do without his 24-year-old outside acceptance column for weeks. Against Berlin, Peter was now the worthy MVP of his team. At the same time, his ally in the outside attack, Jori Mantha, continues to give Hauser lines of concern.
One of the reasons Manthas was bad: “He only played golf for four months because the rules were strict in Canada.”
The Canadian who jumped with great power was “in top form when he left us” at the end of last season, as Hauser says, not really running since the start of the current season. According to Hauser, one of the reasons Mantha’s size took a dent is because “he only played golf for four months because the rules were tighter than here in Canada.” Volleyball training was out of the question for Mantha, and he’s still strung together with Hersching’s new setter Luke Herr—Mantha had reconciled brilliantly with Hersching’s predecessor Johannes Till for two years. “But Jory is moving on and the season is still long. Now you don’t have to panic,” Hauser said.
Still, something like this can affect the mood, with third outside attacker Jordi Ramon Ferragut missing for weeks due to a broken arm. There were also no spectators at Nikolauschelle against Berlin, as it would not have been worthwhile for the club to exhaust the current maximum possible capacity of 250 fans. Somehow the worm is currently in the game of hairswitching, and the accompanying circumstances are perfect.
The game against Berlin, this big name, should have been the highlight of the first half of the season, with the game planned at the Audi Dome. But the coronavirus pandemic thwarted Ammersee’s volleys, as they often did when they wanted to play in Munich. “Even financially, it is no easy matter,” says Hauser, who hopes his team will be able to return to the Bayern basketball court for the final second-round home game against Frankfurt on January 8 – and Later for them too. Intermediate round and playoff. But at least there is a big question mark behind the game against Frankfurt, as by then the pandemic situation is unlikely to improve enough that the state government will again attract many spectators to professional sporting events.
