37-year-old foreign player scored more than 100 points
The Information Corps Club finished the national championship in 5th place overall. They have been empty-handed for 3 consecutive seasons. Although they have a quality foreign player - Jana Kulan - in their squad, that is not enough for coach Pham Minh Dung and his team to get the desired results.
According to statistics, despite being 37 years old, Jana Kulan still shows impressive scoring performance. After only 3 matches, the Azerbaijani player scored a total of 110 points (approximately 37 points/match). She is very active in defense as well as in taking the first step.
However, her team lost to Duc Giang Lao Cai Chemicals, VTV Binh Dien Long An and LPB Ninh Binh. Kulan is also the only foreign player without a win in this year's national championship.
