It's been an eventful week for both squads competing in the Danish national league. Both squads claimed points, while the Women's team impressed by winning four out of four matches to claim the top spot in the 3. Division A.

Women: Edging Out The Competition

The Women's team switched their attention to POWER Ligaen last week as they had four matches scheduled.

The upward trajectory continues, which they proved by winning all the matches and claiming the top spot in the 3. Division A.

Marie "marie" Toft began the week on fire as she contributed massively to a 13-7 win vs. HDE.Hype with a spectacular 1.72 rating and 24 frags.

In a closer match an hour later, Linnea "Nea" Claesson replicated marie's performance by likewise achieving 24 frags to help secure a 13-11 win vs. O Grande Canhão itsOK.

It became an even more exciting evening when Katharina "KiTKaT" Bauenmand and her troops faced Linx Legacy Elite on Vertigo. The match required double overtime to find a winner with the score 19-16. Fortunately, the trio of Isabella "Ismo" Ferslev, Nea and marie gave it their all and helped cross the finish line first to secure three points.

After a day's rest, the Women's squad convincingly took down Vilde skovkatte on Anubis 13-5, meaning all possible 12 points were gathered this week.
