The Korean Air Jumbos have clinched the Korean V-League championship title for the third year in a row.
Led by MVP Sun-Soo Han and powered by Australian oposite Lincoln Williams 34 points (with a 65% success rate), the Jumbos overcame the Hyundai Skywalkers in a thrilling tie-break in Game 3 of the final.
Despite trailing 2-0, the Jumbos fought back in style to take the next two sets, setting up a nail-biting decider. The Skywalkers, playing at home and spurred on by their star player Camejo (58% in attack), battled fiercely but ultimately fell short, with the Jumbos prevailing 15-11 in the final set. Su-Bong Heo and Oreol Camejo stood out as the top scorers for Hyundai, with 20 and 16 points, respectively.
The victory marks the fourth V-League title in the Jumbos history and a remarkable achievement for the Incheon-based team.
