Lightweight athletes from SCN embark on their quest for medals at the DM competition
The athletics department of SC Neubrandenburg is readying itself for a series of upcoming championships, with a strong roster of athletes showing promising medal prospects based on recent performances.
**Upcoming Championships & Events**
The team recently made a successful showing at the Landesmeisterschaften (State Championships) in Rostock, earning a significant number of medals across age groups from U14 to men and women. The U18 team, including the 4x100 meter relay squad coached by Adam Domicz, secured qualification standards for the U18 Championships.
SCN athletes also took part in the 50th Werfertag in Halle, a throwing event where their youth athletes posted strong performances. Upcoming local meets, such as those at the Jahnstadion, will see athletes continuing to improve their personal bests and compete under better weather conditions.
Participation in the German U18 European Youth Olympic Festival (EYOF) includes John Christian Schochardt as a nominated substitute.
**Participant List Highlights**
Giona Beyersdorf, a frequent competitor, brought multiple medals in the recent state championships. Lewe Teuber, a U20 long-distance runner, narrowly missed a podium finish at the German Championships in Hamburg with a time of 15:15.24. Emily Scherf set a new personal best at the Halle throwing competition.
The young U18 throwers John Schochardt and Johannes Kunkel have been actively competing, including challenging weather conditions at EYOF. The female youth team includes athletes such as Frieda, Tia, Enni, Lara, Neele, Mia, Marie, Nike, Emma, Ava, and Elisa who competed in the Norddeutsche Meisterschaft U16w and other regional meets.
**Medal Expectations**
Based on recent results, SC Neubrandenburg is expected to continue their "medal rain" in regional and national youth competitions, with several athletes achieving qualifying norms and personal bests. The strong relay team and standout individual performances, such as those of Giona Beyersdorf and Emily Scherf, position the club well for medals in upcoming championships.
Although Lewe Teuber missed a medal at the national level recently, his competitive times indicate potential for future podium finishes.
**Championships Ahead**
The U16 DM (Under-16 German Championships) will kick off this weekend in Ulm, with five athletes from SCN competing: Arvid Ziemann, Kim Hoffmann, Mia Parge, Jan Fatyga, and Leonhard Schubert.
