In a data group, when the numbers are arranged from smallest to largest, if the number of terms in the group is odd, the median (middle value) is the middle number; if it is even, the median is the arithmetic mean of the two middle numbers. The ages and heights of the 9 players on a volleyball team, with the first component representing their ages and the second component representing their heights, are given as the sorted data group by height: $(18; 1.76), (17; 1.79), (18; 1.82), (19; 1.84), (20; 1.84)$, $(21; 1.88), (17; 1.90), (20; 1.92), (19; 1.96)$. One player left this 9-person team, but the median of both the ages and heights of the remaining players did not change. Accordingly, which of the following correctly gives the age and height of the player who left the team? A) $(17; 1.79)$ B) $(17; 1.90)$ C) $(19; 1.84)$ D) $(19; 1.96)$ E) $(21; 1.88)$
