Jung Kwan-jang Reds' 'ace' Lee So-young will miss this week due to mild concussion symptoms.
"Lee So-young has a mild concussion, so we're going to rest her this week and see how she is doing," head coach Ko Hee-jin said in an interview before the Reds' third-round match against GS Caltex of the Dodram V League Women's Division in the 2023-2024 season at Chungmu Gymnasium in Daejeon on Nov. 21.
The injury occurred during the fourth set defense against Hyundai E&C on April 16. While chasing the ball to defend, Lee So-young and Mega, who was running in front of her, collided head-on. Lee fell to the court immediately after the collision and was unable to get up for a while, lying on the court with an impact to her head and being checked by trainers and on-site medical staff. The match was stopped for a while.카지노사이트777
A stretcher was brought in, but Lee got back up. Mega, who had been watching her with a worried expression, reached out to her as she got up, and she grabbed her hand and stood up, but the shock didn't go away easily. She left the court.
Coach Ko Hee-jin said, "She's been examined at the hospital and there's nothing wrong with her. I think it's just a mild concussion, but the hospital recommended rest. There's no problem, but they said it's better to observe because I hit my head hard. It was too hard," she said.
Lee did not accompany So-young to the stadium. She is resting and minimizing her movements to light personal exercises. Coach Ko said, "The player herself says she feels the same as usual and doesn't feel anything different, but it's possible that her blood pressure could go up while exercising, so I think it's right to take it easy and see how she is doing. I'm going to let her rest this week without playing." Park Hye-min will start in place of Lee So-young.
Mega is also feeling sorry for herself. Coach Ko Hee-jin said, "She's very sorry. But Mega also said that she was sick because she hit her head that day. Luckily, she's fine," she said with a sigh of relief.
