After becoming the first coach in the history of the women’s professional basketball league to win 300 games, Asan Woori Bank head coach Satellite Woo expressed her gratitude to her players .Woori, led by Satellite, won 78-70 at home against Samsung Life in Yongin at Yi Sunshin Gymnasium in Asan, Chungcheongnam-do on Nov. 25.With the win, Satellite, who made her head coaching debut in 2012, became the first coach in the history of the Korean Women’s Basketball League (WKBL) to win 300 regular season games. Aside from Woo, no other coach has reached the 200-win mark.
Women’s basketball plays 30 regular-season games per team per season, so a gap of more than 100 wins means that no one will be able to catch up for a while. Woori Financial Group Chairman Lim Jong-ryong visited the stadium and stayed until the end of the game to congratulate Woo. “I don’t really know how I feel about it,” Woo said in a post-game TV interview, “I’ve been playing for a long time, but I’m grateful to the players for their hard work,” he said .When asked about his secret to consistently performing well since taking over as Woori Bank’s head coach, Wee replied, “There is nothing special, I always practice like a real game,” and said, “The players may have a hard time, but I think that part comes out in the game.”
When asked who he is grateful for, he said, “My wife, who always supports me from behind.” He also expressed his affection for his wife .At this time, the players were preparing ice and water around the interview, and then they threw them at Coach Wei in a congratulatory ceremony .In particular, Park Ji-hyun, who is known for being scolded by Wee, celebrated in an extreme way by throwing ice into the top of Wee’s shirt. The players’ ‘ice baptism’ didn’t end soon enough, prompting Wee to yell, “Stop it.” “It is thanks to the fans who support us that we have set such a record,” he said. “Also, Woori Bank employees show a lot of interest, and we will 슬롯게이밍 repay them with better games in the future.”
