Thank you and Congrats to EGM-Perpete as well for a season well done. If you guys haven't seen it yet, the Senior National Team won today, making it 3 wins this season, and although they won't be advancing to the knockout round, 3 wins for our NT has almost been an unheard of feat!!!

so please, the great citizens of Korea, I don't know if Perpete plans to take another run at coaching our National Team, I sure hope he does, but make sure you vote at the start of next season! =)

Let this be the start of building from the ground up, and hopefully getting nice young players into the senior team that will last for a while.

as Busan Thunder said

경정태!! 경정태!!! 경정태!!!

Thank you guys! Our national program wouldn't have been as strong without your help.

경정태 is just my junior team player's name

I think you want...

대한민국!! 대한민국!! 대한민국!!

And I agree... awesome yearand great coaching for both National Teams. Thanks coaches.

Final Score (Scrimmage)
Lubnan U21 125 - 138 Hanguk U21

A back and forth game from the get go, but Lubnan tries to pull away early, sinking early dagger-threes, to put our Korean Juniors in an early hole, trailing as much as 21-11 in the game. But team Korea wasn't going to let them have it easy firing back with a balanced distribution of points scoring and timely offensive rebound, clawed back to end the quarter only down 2 points, 31-29. The back and forth continued through the 2nd quarter with an abundance of foul calls. Good thing that extra free throw practice we had is paying off. It's as if the refs are trying to take the game in their own hands. We come back out gunning from the half and finally taken the lead, but never enough to pull away, ending the quarter up 4, 87-91. Final quarter, both teams slows down their offense to make sure of their shots, as our boys try to maintain our 4 point lead. Lubnan ties it up on a 3! Back and forth we go in a tight 1 possession game, capped off by a 3-ball and a game tying shot by Jae-Hoon Kim, and a Sang-Woo Kim block to prevent any buzzerbeating finish. Dikembe Mutombo finger wag. "Not this time"! We are in for a treat! Overtime! We definitely showed in this game we won't go down easy. What an offensive turnout!!! The extra quarter is brought to you by the Do-Kwon Kim show, putting the game away early with steals and 2 quick baskets. That's all she wrote for Lubnan. The Korean boys takes the win.

Highlights:
Jae-Hoon Kim (33894299) - Took up the leadership role in this game to demonstrate that he can help carry the torch next season in the absence of this year's leader Sang-Woo Kim.
Chan-Myung Noh (35898782) - "Mr. Untouchable" - Where were you all season long? With an amazing 13 for 13 shooting performance. Maybe Mr. Trigger-Happy should take some notes. =)
Speaking of which. Jin-Hyung Ahn (33894294) - "Mr. Trigger-Happy" - maybe as a sign of maturity, only took 3 shots in the whole game, going 1 for 3, evening out his shooting% a bit, and opting to help the team with 8 assists. Possibly having found a second calling, too bad he does have many games left under the U21 squad to earn a better nickname.

The seniors of the team will be leaving soon, but our sophomores are showing promise that they are ready to step up. We are gonna be 화이팅 come next season's consolation tournament!

On a side note skku-star has abandoned his team and left his players searching for a new home. I tried to save a few young hometown boys, if you guys feel like offering shelter:
Sung-Keun Lee (35556599)
Taek-Joon Kim (35556594)
Sung-Hoon Kim (34707098)

And for those who are up for a bidding war, these international players are sure to fetch a pretty penny
John Campbell (22087856)
Alessandro Longo (22689566)
Linas Puroklis (19637457)
Nicasi Costa (27379889)
Dragan Živkov (22925482)

deadline is on Thursday! Make sure you put a bid in if interested!

This week we'll be putting ourselves up to a challenge in facing an European team. We're making them come to us! Hopefully the jet lag will wear them down. =)
This being a U20 match, it'll give us a chance to see what we're brining to the table next season without our retiring 21 year olds.

on a separate note,
we have another new member, just as one manager has forsaken us, another joins. Hopefully everybody just stays so we can grow past 10 managers.
Please join me in a warm welcome for Logic Design (40660)!

Good luck U21 team!

While Busan Thunder and Gangnam Warriors duke it out for Division I Championships, good luck to both,
we'll have to say bye to our seniors of the U21 team.

Jin-Hyung Ahn (33894294)
Chung-Hee Shin (33014749)
Sang-Woo Kim (33014743)
That also means... we're not losing too many players, and hopefully the core of the team is still intact, and have improved enough to fill the void. Let's hope for a good run next season!

Now for the season end awards

most unselfish award, for most assists goes to.... Kyung-Tae Jung (34707136) - (12)
and lastly, managers of the year goes to.... Gangnam Warriors (40650) and Baboteam (40630)- for consistently pumping out good training numbers for the young U21 players they have on their teams.

and chosen for next season, to be your captain of the U21 team
Kyu-Hook Cho (34707101) - Hope you can take charge and lead by example and face the challenge that next season brings!

you all did great this season!!... not quite looking forward to next season's consolation tournament... We'll have to hope for a good draw, but we'll walk in there with our heads held high and face the competition as they come. Keep up the good work!
Good luck at the tryouts for U21 team... I'll be watching with a fiiiiiiinnnneee comb.
