It was a memorable match day on a rainy November day. Even many years later, the deep purple of the jerseys will still be reflected in the memories of the Dukes players, as they suffered two heavy defeats against St. Wendel (1:15) and Erlensee (2:17). The first match against St. Wendel started with a bang, leading to a 0:9 deficit at half-time. In the second half, St. Wendel scored two more quick goals before Ruben was able to score a consolation goal for the Darmstadt team.
