Seven games without a win, no celebrations for the Bundesliga basketball team Rostock Seawolves this calendar year!
The coastal club is fighting relegation with all its might in its second BBL year – with two immediate measures:
After the 89:105 in Hamburg and the slide to 14th place, Seawolves boss André Jürgens, manager Jens Hakanowitz and head coach Christian Held put their heads together intensively. Crisis meeting!
Jürgens: “We have arrived in the fight to stay in the league! Only if the will to win is greater than the fear of losing do we have a chance.” His appeal for the game on Wednesday evening against newly promoted RASTA Vechta: “We want to set an example together and stand united behind our wolves.”

Measure two against the crisis: The Rostock team signed Lester Medford (30) on Wednesday, initially until the end of the season. The playmaker was most recently on the ball for Jonava (Latvia), previously with the Italian second division club Cremona. Medford is supposed to relieve Wes Clark in the rotation, for whom there has so far been no equivalent replacement in the Seawolves squad.

Against Vechta (from 6.15 p.m. live on DYN) the seventh win of the season should finally be bagged and the cushion on relegation place 17 (Crailsheim/four wins) should be increased – with Medford.
What does hero expect from the American? “Lester is someone who has already seen a lot in Europe but still wants to go further. He can definitely give us a lot in defense and is a very aggressive and snappy defender. He is also incredibly fast, can beat his opponent and, above all, find his teammates.”
Coach Held: “We have noticed in the last few weeks that we are too thinly staffed. Due to the situation in which we repeatedly had and still have failures, we had to react.”
