Pepper Savings Bank, the youngest female player in the women's professional volleyball division, is aiming to win 10 games. Pepper Savings Bank will play its first game in the fourth round against IBK Industrial Bank of Korea in an away match in Hwaseong on Tuesday. Pepper Savings Bank ranked fifth with 6 wins and 12 losses (19 points) in 18 games in the first half. Its six wins are the new record of the largest number of wins in a single season for Pepper Savings Bank, which was founded in 2021. Pepper Savings Bank was at the bottom of the list for the past three seasons, and it was a nuisance.
This season is different. Pepper Savings Bank beat "defending champion" Hyundai Engineering & Construction in the last game of the first half to break the record of most wins. The team lost all six games last season and had a close game with Hyundai Engineering & Construction, a strong favorite this season, to secure the win.
The primary goal of Pepper Savings Bank, which celebrates its 2024-2025 season with new coach Yoo Ji-yeon, is double-digit wins. Pepper Savings Bank, which had the top spot in foreign and Asian quarter players' tryouts, has named Barzava Zavic (Apogit Spiker) and Jangwi (middle blocker), respectively, to create a team that has strength in "height."
However, Zavic's scoring ability did not meet expectations, and he decided to replace foreign players in the opening two games. Taylor Lin Fricano joined the team relatively quickly, but his performance in the first round ended with only one win and five losses.
Pepper Savings Bank, which added stability to the center of the court by utilizing its 197-centimeter-tall stature, has seen its performance gradually increase thanks to the scoring ability of not only outside heater Park Jung-ah but also Lee Han-bi. Notably, Rivero Han-hye, who was recruited from the free agent market, has supplemented its defense, which was Pepper Savings Bank's weakness.
Pepper Savings Bank will challenge IBK Industrial Bank for its seventh win of this season. All of the wins posted in the second half will become a "new history" for the club.
Although the gap with the fourth-ranked IBK Industrial Bank (31 points, 11 wins and 7 losses) has widened considerably, "Spring Volleyball" itself is not a step to give up. If it wins against IBK Industrial Bank, which has lost nine consecutive games from last season to the first half of this season, it is not strange what happens in the future. 토토사이트
