TBV Lemgo Lippe fights bravely, but loses against SC Magdeburg!

In a thrilling encounter, coach Florian Kehrmann's team didn't let themselves get down despite the defeat and showed a committed performance that was level until the 50th minute. The score of 25:26 showed that the Lemgoers were always in the game before Magdeburg was able to make the result more clear in the final phase.

A look at the academic offerings at Wartburg University shows that students there can combine interdisciplinary courses. A maximum of 20 credits from the different subject areas may be taken, which certainly promotes the creativity and flexibility of the learners, as wartburg.edu not insignificantly emphasizes. Perhaps the upcoming sporting challenges will also inspire one or two players in their academic careers.
