Woori Card wins 5 straight after opening men’s professional volleyball season

3-0 sweep of KEPCO
Sophomore setter Han Tae-joon had a big game

Men’s professional volleyball leader Woori Card has extended its winning streak to five matches. Woori Card swept KEPCO 3-0 (25-18, 25-21, 25-23) in their 2023-2024 V-League opener at Suwon Gymnasium on Monday. Woori Card, which was founded in the 2013-2014 season, had never won three games in a row after opening the season.

Leading the way for the Woori Card is second-year setter Han Tae-joon (19). Han is a “high school setter” who graduated from Suseong High School in Suwon, South Korea, and immediately entered the V-League. After playing only 170 total sets (tosses) last season, 카지노사이트랭크 Han has taken over as the team’s starter this season and has shown the ability to orchestrate an offense that doesn’t rely on a single player.

Again, he utilized the trio of Matei (27-opposite spiker – 15 points), Kim Ji-han (24), and Han Sung-jung (27-outside hitter – 11 points) to secure the win in 1 hour and 27 minutes. In the center, Park Jin-woo (33) added eight points and Issei (28-Japan) six.

Woori Card head coach Shin Young-cheol said, “Middle blocker has always been a problem for us, but selecting Issei for the Asian quarter relieved our worries. She’s not flashy, but she doesn’t make unforced errors. Thanks to Issei, our team has become more solid.”

In the women’s match, the Anbang team (formerly KGC Ginseng Corporation) swept Hyundai E&C 3-0 (25-22, 25-21, 25-16). 섯다
