Coach Robert was able to secure a game during the international week and show his son where his new job has landed him. Robert had opportunities to work with his son off and on for many years while he was playing and coaching handball for some of the best teams in the World.
The USA MNT concluded the last training game with a 30-36 loss to the first division club, TSV St. Otmar St. Gallen. The MNT fell into a deficit heading into halftime with a score of 12-21.

Also adding solid defense and contributing with scores were Alexander Binderis (4), Ethan Pickett(3), Alec Zeck (2) and Ford Dyke (1).
Rene Ingram led the way in goal and was relieved by Eric Finch during parts of the game.
On another note Amadeus Hedin contributed 2 goals in the Father-Son duel. Robert appreciated the special moment and proud to see his son play.
