"I've never seen such a fastball as a leader"...155km/h Hanwha's second-ranked fireballer, will it continue to rise in the professional league

Ju Chang-hoon, the coach of Jeon High School, attended the "2024 Korea Baseball Softball Association" award ceremony held at Bride Valley in southern Seoul on Tuesday. He stood tall as the supreme leader by contributing to Jeon's victory in blue dragon flag, phoenix flag, and national sports last year. He received the Kim Il-bae Leader Award at the ceremony.온라인바카라

Last year, Jeon had a year that would go down in school history. By winning three competitions, Jeon established himself as a strong team in national baseball. Six players have also advanced to the pro league. Starting with Jung Woo-ju (Hanwha Eagles), the second highest ranking pitcher in the first round, Lee Ho-min (KIA Tigers) who is the 15th highest ranking pitcher in the second round, Lee Han-rim (LG Twins), the 30th highest ranking catcher in the third round, Seo Young-joon (LG Twins), the 44th highest ranking outfielder in the fifth round, and Um Jun-hyun who is the 85th highest ranking in the ninth round.


"I'm so grateful to the players. Thanks to the players who always trusted and followed me through hard training, I got this big award," said Joo, who drew the attention in many ways.

The students have now taken their first steps as professional players, regardless of whether they belong to the Ama Baseball Organization or not. Attention is focusing on right-handed pitcher Jung Woo-joo. Jung's strength is four-seam fastball, which boasts powerful and tricky movements up to 155 kilometers per hour. He was nominated in the top round in recognition of his talent, and is currently participating in the club's spring camp in Melbourne, Australia, where he is sweating profusely. 


Hanwha manager Kim Kyung-moon said to Young-gun and Jung Woo-ju at the closing camp last year, "If he doesn't get sick, I think he will be a pitcher who will be able to see his face in the first division next year." If Jung Woo-joo stands out during the spring camp, practice matches in Okinawa, Japan, and exhibition games, he is expected to give him a chance in the first division.

In addition to Jung's potential, Joo viewed his attitude toward baseball positively. "Jung Woo-joo is really good in terms of personality and personal management. I have never said anything that I hate. Even on days when I don't have night exercise, I do basic exercises such as stretching while listening to music alone. I think I can do well in the professional league if I do my own thing without thinking too much because I have a lot of greed. Jung's fastball... I've never seen such a fastball as a leader before," he said with a thumbs-up.


He also sent a message to players other than Jung Woo-joo. He expected all of his students to fulfill their dreams as professional players. 

"Only the best players can become professionals. You have to work out and compete with seniors that you saw on TV. It is not easy to beat even the best players. If you work hard and silently wait without giving up, you will have an opportunity. I hope you will not give up until you take that opportunity, and continue to work as hard as you did in high school. I hope everything will go well," Joo said, sending a message full of affection to his students.
