Not a single defeat in the preliminary part, reached the final and got the title of champions of the Student Handball League - that's how the University Sports men's team finished the tournament, which ended in the KAI-Olympic Sports Complex.
The most competitive opponent for the athletes of Volga Region University was the KAI team, with the minimum score of 38:37 and 32:31. The KAI boys were able to put up a good fight and pull on the nerves of the athletes of Volga Region University in the battle for first place.
"The first games and all the following ones were quite tricky for us, - says team captain Alexander Drozhzhin, sharing his impressions. - We played without a goalkeeper, put a field player in the frame and worked on defending as best we could. I personally did not like the final game; first they took a comfortable plus-4 lead, and then made silly mistakes that could have resulted in a draw or, worse, a defeat. I think we just relaxed, which is why the game was so tense. The teams have got stronger in the AGL. Wins are not given so easily any more - the experience of the teams is growing, and it's only good. That means the matches will be more interesting.
