Split of the U12 at the start of the season

At the start of the season last Sunday, the 23. April the U12 of the Nagold Mohawks and the Tübingen Hawks against each other in Mohawks Park.

The Nagolder were visibly nervous at the beginning. Still, they made it, not letting the Tübingen Hawks pull away in the first two innings. In the third inning the boys rewarded themselves and called for the first time 3-1 Runs in leadership.

Unfortunately, the joy was short-lived. Also the strong pitching of Luka Gauss, with a total of ten strike-outs, didn't help, that the Tübingen took the lead again and this in the 5. innings to 3-7 Runs ausbauten.

Our students tried again to turn the tide, however unsuccessful.

The first game went with 5-7 Runs to the guests from Tübingen.

Spiel 2 started after a short break, in which the two new coaches, Patrick Gauss and Frieder Pfeifle, once again appealed for concentration and readjusted the team with motivating words.

The two teams didn't give each other much at the beginning (1-1 Runs). Aggressive base running and some action worth seeing allowed the Mohawks to win the third and fourth innings 6-3 Runs go ahead. A remarkable triple from Linus Ziegler followed by a steel on home was the highlight of the fourth inning. He was rightly celebrated by his teammates and spectators. The Tübingen Hawks tried in vain in the fifth inning to keep the Nagold Mohawks from their first season win. The game ended with 6-4 Runs and thus the first win in the first double header.
