The 24-year-old US National Team member Simone Lee made a display for long memory. She put down 44 points (6 blocks) in the five-set win of the Kurobe AquaFairies over the PFU Bluecats in the first round of the 2020/21 V.League Division 1 Women regular season!

The JT Marvelous showed they plan to defend the title. In the replay of the last season’s playoff finals, they swept Okayama Seagulls: 3-0 (25-20, 25-22, 25-21). Lee’s compatriot Andrea Drews, the 2019/20 MVP, top-scored the winning side with 23 points, while Kotona Hayashi made 83.3 % reception.
