“On the road again” as the song by Willie Nelson goes, it was a bumpy road for the “Wild Bees” in Mannheim going into the fourth quarter, but again the “Bees” swarm defense did the job. Allowing only two field goals in the last 4 minutes and forcing Mannheim to foul, but free throws by Thomas Weidlich closed out the game for the Herren 2 “Wild Bees” third win. “The team has come to understand that defense wins the game, and can dig deep as a strong unit when the game is on the line” stated Coach Wicks. “I was very happy with the team’s full game effort both offensively and especially on defense when it counted, but we still have to work on being consistent, and not allow teams to make comebacks”. The Herren 2 have a three week break before its next “road trip” and can work to become more effective in this area. Again, the road has been kind to the travelling “Wild Bees”.
