Both the JKU’s men's and women's teams brought 600 enthusiastic fans to their feet and secured spots in the play-offs!

The Women’s Team: Sweeping victories
The women's team has already clinched their spot in the play-offs but still managed to demonstration their strength by dominating the WU Vienna with an impressive 64:15 victory. Leading the team with an impressive performance - and underlining her position as a top ACSL player (Austrian College Sports League) in the MVP rankings - Valerie Voithofer played a particularly outstanding game.

The Men’s Team: All in - and a play-off win
The men’s team is all in and a win against the WU Tigers on March 15 in the Wiener Stadthalle would make the play-off dream come true! The Astros managed to beat the Tigers 53:42 in a nail-biting, highly suspenseful game to clinch a spot in the play-off!

Ending the Season on a High
Over 600 fans packed Kepler Hall to the last seat, creating a loud, rousing atmosphere full of JKU spirit! The home game marked both the perfect end to the season and a successful start to the play-offs.
