If we win, that’s great. But better than that is to do our thing. I hope the players can learn the physical part through this match. I want them to gain experience and play our brand of basketball no matter who they are playing against.”

Kyung Hee University continued to press Hana Won Q strongly in the third quarter. Hana One Q struggled with this. Mistakes were made and the game was not easy to run. Shin Ji-hyun made a three-pointer and a fast break, but it was still in Kyung Hee University’s favor.

Hana Wonq actively used young players in the fourth quarter. They wanted the younger players to grow through rough play. The players lived up to this expectation. Even though the score was high, they didn’t shy away from physical play. They boxed out and didn’t give up offensive rebounds. And they were quick on offense. But it wasn’t enough to overturn the deficit.
