Premiere for Luisa Keller: Ladies in Black with only nine players!

Schwerin, Deutschland - An exciting evening in the volleyball Bundesliga! The Ladies in Black experienced an unexpected premiere when foreign attacker Luisa Keller had to step in as Libera. "I have never played Libera before, of course that was an unusual situation," the player confessed after the game. The reason for this temporary job? Kacey Jost felt uncomfortable after the second set and stayed in the cabin. With just nine players on the field, the ladies lost their home game against runner -up SSC Palmberg Schwerin with 0: 3 (20:25, 17:25, 15:25).

difficult conditions for the ladies

trainer Mareike Hindriksen commented on the performance of her decimated team: "We bravely played in the first two sets, but the rip -off was missing." Despite an early deficit of 1: 3, the ladies fought their way into play, but Schwerin showed himself to be a serious opponent. The first set went with 25:20 to the guests, who in the second set, thanks to a strong service series by Leana Grozer, who brought the ladies in 19:14, won even more clearly.

In the third set, the morals of the Aacheners were unbroken, but Schwerin did not subside and quickly moved to 15: 5. A service error ended the sentence and the game with 25:15. "Schwerin is simply incredibly strong and has an incredible depth in the squad," summed up Hindriks. Grozer was named the most valuable player in the game and beamed with her MVP medal, while the ladies in black with mixed feelings look into the next challenge.
