Lilly Oswald strengthens the violet ladies - until the table on a mission!

Göttingen, Deutschland - The BG 74 Göttingen has signed the player Lilly Oswald as a new addition. This became known on January 1, 2025. Oswald, the girlfriend of the reliable player Kostja Mushidi, will support the violets ladies. Last Sunday, the Göttingen won a 59:46 victory against the TK Hannover Luchse. Despite this success, the team slipped to the last place in the table because the USC Freiburg won against its opponent at the same time.

The league increased 14 teams this season, which means that there is no relegation. The direct comparison between the BG Göttingen and Hanover ended with a narrow point difference in favor of the Göttingener after the first leg was lost 59:71. Lilly Oswald, 21 years old and playing on the position of the shooting guards, had already played as a 16-year-old for the extended squad of the GISA Lions SV Halle (now Syntainics Central German BC). Last season she competed for the MBC nine times, but did not receive a new contract.

New start and playing time

Oswald then switched to the Astro Ladies Bochum, where it was only used once. She has trained with the BG 74 since November last year. Their approval of Bochum was granted shortly before the game against Hanover. Managing Director Richard Crowder initially sees Oswald as a supplementary player, but expects her skills to develop further. In her debut game against the lynx, she was used for over six minutes.

In addition, the U12-3 of the BG 74 celebrated a clear victory against MTV Herzberg on January 24, 2023 with an impressive result of 106: 26. The team, under the direction of coach Luca Albrecht, showed a captive performance, achieved many steals and put in the attack on a quick switch. The game took place on Saturday afternoon, whereby the BG had to play at baskets at its original height. Despite the significant superiority, there was potential for improvement. The next game of the team is scheduled for February 4th. Captain Luciano Diaz and the other players, including Joris Neitzel, Piet Resow, Julius Jochheim, Carl Spiegel, Oskar Wreder, Miko Renner, Oskar Ziro and Luis Pförner, should continue the positive progress.
