Chapter 33 The National Competition Begins



After leaving the station, Xiangyang and Fengyu went to the venue of the opening ceremony together. Because of the relationship between coach Kitano and Kudo, the players of Xiangyang and Fengyu got along well.After all, high school students in their teens also have common topics, and Xiangyang and Fengyu are not in the same half area. If the two teams meet, it will only be in the finals. The teams wish each other good luck and wish each other good results.

………………

The National High School League, which is what we often call the summer competition, is officially named [National High School Comprehensive Sports Conference], and the English name is [InterHigh], also referred to as the IH Competition. It can be said that in addition to basketball games, other sports events such as track and field, Major sports events such as billiards and judo will be held at the same time and place.It is one of the three major high school basketball tournaments, and it is also known as the biggest tournament in Japanese high school basketball.

At the opening ceremony of the conference, after a group of leaders finished their speeches, the captain of the basketball team of Hakata Commercial University Affiliated High School, last year’s champion team and one of the hosts of this competition, led all the basketball team players to take an oath: "Swear!!! All of us participating Players—"

………………

"Tomorrow is the first game. The opponent is Kagawa Prefecture's Horned Crane Team. And the basketball level of Shikoku, where Kagawa is located, has always been at the bottom of the country. So as long as you don't get nervous in tomorrow's game, you can show your true strength." In the hotel at night, Kudo analyzed their opponents for tomorrow to the players.

"We know." by Xiangyang Zhong.

"Remember not to be nervous." Kudo emphasized again, "Okay, you are tired after sitting in the car for such a long time today, go find some sleep." Xiangyang is not short of money, but there are too many students participating in the national league, and there are also many tourists, and basketball is not the most popular sport, Xiangyang team is not well-known in the country now, so Xiangyang is rich now I can’t even buy a good hotel, so I can only open a few large rooms and sleep on tatami mats. Fortunately, sleeping on tatami mats is very common in Japan, and although the hotels they rent are not top-notch, they are also good. , There are TVs and air conditioners, so it won't make people feel hot.

On August 8nd, the first round started, and the seeded team had a bye today, so Hainan specially came to watch the Xiangyang match, while the Qiuyue team played after the match between Xiangyang and Horned Crane.So they all came to watch Xiangyang.

"Come out, the Xiangyang team is here." Xiangyang's cheerleading team also rushed to Fukuoka under the organization of the school to cheer for the Xiangyang team.There is no way, this is the first time that Xiangyang has entered the national league in three years. If no one organizes a cheerleading team, there will be no one in Fukuoka to cheer for Xiangyang.Of course, because the basketball atmosphere in the four countries is not good, not many people who came to the venue today cheered for the horned cranes.

"Come on, Xiangyang!!!"

"Xiangyang will win!!!"

The cheerleaders cheered for the team crazily as usual.

"Xiangyang's cheerleading team is spectacular!" said a Qiuyue player.

"It seems that the basketball atmosphere in their school is good!"

"I heard that they played against Hainan in the qualifiers, and they also defeated Buri, one of the top eight last year. I just don't know how strong they are?"

"It should be good. After all, Kanagawa is a fierce battle area. The strength of all the teams that came out of the Kanagawa game is still very good." After all, Tokyo is adjacent to Kanagawa County, so they have certain strengths for the Kanagawa team. learn.

At the beginning of the game, to be honest, the strength of the horn crane team from Shikoku Island may be stronger than that of the top eight teams in Kanagawa, but they often participate in the National League.Therefore, after the initial nervous mistakes, Xiangyang immediately adapted to the game and played at a normal level. At 63:25 at the end of the first half, the horned crane was ready to surrender.

"Xiangyang's strength is very good, it seems that we will have a tough battle tomorrow."

"Yes, I'm afraid it will be difficult to fight tomorrow!"

"That's right, I didn't expect the Xiangyang team to be so powerful. Kanagawa really deserves to be a fierce battle zone!"

"Okay, it's time for us to warm up." Qiuyue's captain shouted.

At this time, Luoan, the seeded team of Xiangyang and their half, had just arrived at the competition venue. Seeing the score on the scoreboard, some players asked: "Xiangyang? What's going on here?"

After Qiuyue's warm-up ended, the match between Xiangyang and Horned Crane resumed.In order to take care of the physical strength of the main players, Kudo withdrew all the starters and put the substitutes on the field, which also allowed them to feel the atmosphere of the national competition.At the end of the game, Xiangyang easily won with the final score of 114:61 and advanced to the next round.But after the game, all of Xiangyang didn't leave, they wanted to observe their opponents in the next game.And Kudo got a system reward of 200 SD points.

"Congratulations." Otsu said when he saw the Xiangyang team coming to them.

"Where is it, we will cheer for you tomorrow morning." Nakamura said modestly.

After the Xiangyang competition, Hainan and Xiangyang exchanged pleasantries before going to another competition venue. They wanted to observe their opponents tomorrow.

After watching Akizuki's halftime game, Kudo asked the players: "What do you think about the strength of Akizuki's team?"

"Well, it's okay. It's better than Buri, but not as good as Hainan and Changcheng." Sugiyama was the first to say.

"Sugiyama is right, we have the confidence to win them." After several games, Nakamura is now full of confidence in the strength of the team.

"It's good for you to have confidence, but don't be careless." Kudo said, "I specially asked someone to bring over the video tapes of the three games of the Akizuki team in the Tokyo qualifier round-robin finals, so we will analyze them this afternoon." In addition to Qiuyue's videotape, Kudo also asked Takamoto to get the videotape of Luoan and Sanno in the qualifiers. Of course, the videotape of Hakata business in the second half is also ready, just in case. As for the Hainan team, there is no need , because both teams are familiar with each other.

At the end of Qiuyue's game, they also defeated their opponents by a big score of 97:54. They will play against Xiangyang tomorrow afternoon.

In the afternoon, in the hotel, Xiangyang people had already watched the videotapes of Qiuyue's three games in detail.

"Tell me, you also watched Qiuyue's game this morning, and now you have also watched the videotapes of these games. Tell us about your respective opponents."

Sugiyama said confidently: "Akizuki's center is not my opponent."

"Akizuki's power forward will be blown away by me." After Sugiyama finished speaking, Oshima couldn't wait to say.

"Qiuyue's small forward, I have the confidence to deal with it." Nakamura also said at this time.

"Compared to three points, I will not lose to Qiuyue's defender." This is Ikeda's self-confidence.

"I...I will work hard." Facing Qiuyue's captain and Qiuyue's ace point guard, Xiyuan Temple was a little unconfident, "But even if I can't match him, I won't lose to him."

"Well, that's enough, Nakamura and Ikeda, you all go to help Xiyuan Temple tomorrow." Kudo ordered, "But I hope that Xiyuan Temple will learn from Qiuyue's captain tomorrow, and you have to remember that you are no better than him. How much difference."

"Understood!!" by everyone.

"Okay, let's go eat."

"Yes!"

At the same time, Qiuyue was also analyzing the Xiangyang team. After all, everyone knows the truth of "knowing yourself and knowing the enemy, and winning every battle." But when they see clearly the strength of Xiangyang, what effective methods will they have?
