Loss with respectable result: Devils play 75:52 in Wetzlar
Saturday, 24. October 2015
As expected, RSV Lahn-Dill turned out too strong for FCK
Rolling Devils. Kaiserslautern lost in Wetzlar with the very respectable result
of 75:52. Lahn-Dill dominated in all aspects, but the „Red Devils“ fought
back well over the whole time of the game. The hosts won all quarters by
5 to 6 points and were in all statistics ahead of the guests by a few percent. Lahn-Dill obviously considered
Kaiserslautern a serious opponent: home coach Nikolai Zeltinger let his stars Michael
Paye, Steve Serio, Dirk Köhler and Thomas Böhme play for long time and
seemingly let them have a close watch on Devils‘ top scorer Jake Williams. Williams
was less successful in this game, but again top scorer (13 points), slightly
ahead of Capasso (12), Mark Beissert
(11) and Ryan Wright (8). Kaiserslautern coach gave all Devils playing time. Wetzlar’s
top scorer was Steve Serio with 19 points followed by Thomas Böhme (13), Dirk
Köhler and Jan Haller (both 12).
