While the Upper Austrians were able to fix 2nd place in Conference A, it is already clear for the Bears two rounds before the end of the basic round that their season will end at the beginning of July.
After the happy victory over St. Pölten, the bears were hoping for a further improvement, but against Znojmo it was already becoming apparent that the Styrians would not be able to compete at the front this year. Confirmation followed against Traun. It was already there at the break 40:0 for the Steelsharks. In the second half, which can confidently be classified under Garbage Time XL, the clock ran through thanks to Mercy Rule.
Salzburg cannot be stopped by Amstetten either
Semi-final pairings are emerging
The Steelsharks are the first contenders to move into the playoff alongside the Vikings 2 from Conference A. As of today, they would face a duel with the Salzburg Football Team, which Amstetten defeated in the game for the table lead in Conference B. In the second semifinals, the Thunder would be guests at the Vikings 2. But there are still two rounds to play.
