Chapter 31 County Competition Begins

Time passed slowly, and soon came to the 17th.

This day is also the day when the county competition announced the schedule, and the official competition will be held on the 19th, which is the day after tomorrow.

In other words, from the beginning of the school to the present, each team only has more than half a month to prepare.

This is why very few high school freshman players become the team's starters. In such a short period of time, high school freshman players have not been able to integrate into the team for the time being, and they are unfamiliar with their teammates.

Unless the personal strength is very strong, it is difficult for high school players to get the chance to start.

During this period of time, the Lingnan team has maintained high-intensity training, and coach Tian Gang's reprimands have been heard endlessly, making the players miserable.

This directly led to the fact that many first-year freshmen who had just joined the team could not stand the hard and boring training and quit the team one after another.

Coach Tian Gang did not keep them, which has something to do with their talent and strength.

In Coach Tianoka's view, among this batch of freshmen, only Yuzumi and Ikegami have the value of training.

Yuzhu's training is still very hard. Not only has his personal ability been improved to a certain extent, but his inside skills have been further improved.

In more than half a month, Yuzhu's strength has been greatly improved.

The current Uozu can be said to be in the ranks of top centers, and already has the strength to compete for the number one center in Kanagawa Prefecture.

Under the influence of Yuzhu, many main players also joined the team for extra training.

This also made Coach Tian Gang feel very gratified, thinking that as long as the luck is not too bad, there is no small possibility of getting the top four seats in Kanagawa Prefecture, and there is hope to get tickets to the national competition.

In order to improve teamwork, every two days, there will be an intra-team confrontation match, and occasionally, they will use their connections to have a friendly match with other colleges and universities.

This also makes Lingnan players more compatible!
On this day, the schedule of the county competition was officially released.

Looking at the schedule in his hand, Coach Tian Gang didn't know what to say.

Judging from the schedule, before entering the semi-finals, the Lingnan team does not need to face off against Hainan and Xiangyang, but they did not encounter the weakest existence of last year's semi-finals, Jin Jiuwu.

Takeshi Tsuji is a traditional strong team, but its strength is much inferior to the other three teams.

If it was Takeshi Tsukuda, Coach Tianoka might wake up laughing from his dreams, because this means that Lingnan has a great hope of winning the semi-finals.

It's a pity that if the Lingnan team wants to enter the joint finals, they must pass the hurdle of Buri High School.

Buri is at its peak this year, not as 'weak' as it was two years later.

Buri High School is led by the Watanabe Brothers, and is recognized as the strongest inside team in Kanagawa Prefecture, not much inferior to Hainan and Xiangyang.

In last year's county competition, Buri High School almost defeated Xiangyang, but unfortunately, it was a short game in the end.

This year, the Watanabe brothers have become more mature, and their strength is more prominent than last year.

Of course, Xiangyang has also been strengthened, that is, they got Kenji Fujima, one of the future Kanagawa duo!
For Lingnan, this schedule can only be regarded as good or bad.

"I didn't expect that our first opponent would be Miuradai. This is the top 16 team in the county competition last year. Miuradai is not weak. It is our traditional strong team in Kanagawa. Everyone must pay attention to this opponent, and don't underestimate the enemy."

Coach Tian Gang couldn't help frowning, he didn't expect Lingnan's first opponent to meet Miuradai.

Coach Tianoka has a certain understanding of Miuradai, and at the same time has resentment towards Miuradai.

Because, during the spring break, Coach Tianoka tried to recruit Kengo Muramame, but it was a pity that Miuradai took the lead.

"Yes, coach!"

The players shouted one after another, with momentum like a rainbow.

Coach Tianoka began to analyze the information about Miuradai, and said to Uozumi: "The core of Miuradai is Shinichi Yano, a third-year student. This is a center forward. Uozumi, do you have the confidence to beat him?"

"Have!"

Uozumi is full of confidence. Now that he has the qualifications to compete for the No. [-] center in Kanagawa County, how can he not have confidence.

In the following time, Coach Tian Gang continued to analyze Miuradai.

However, most of the information he collected came from last year's county competition.

"It would be nice to have a professional intelligence collector!"

During the analysis, Coach Tian Gang couldn't help being a little dissatisfied.

The importance of data is unquestionable, the more complete the opponent team's data, the better it can be targeted.

In order to better focus on the game the day after tomorrow, Coach Tianoka greatly reduced the training intensity, and at the same time tried his best to investigate the information of Miuradai and arrange tactics.

As the top eight teams in the county competition last year, the Lingnan team is no different from ordinary teams in terms of competition system. It does not have three rounds of byes like the top four teams and directly competes for the joint finals.

Soon, the time came two days later.

This day is also the time when the first round of the county competition begins.

Among them, the Lingnan team's match was scheduled for nine o'clock in the morning.

Under the leadership of Coach Tian Gang, the Lingnan team entered the basketball hall early.

This is a small basketball arena, and there are not many auditoriums.

Maybe it was because of the first round, or because Lingnan and Miuradai were not very well-known. In short, there were not many audiences who came to the scene, and the students from the two schools accounted for a large proportion.

Coach Tianoka did not dare to underestimate Miuradai at all, so he sent what he thought was the strongest starting lineup, namely Uozumi, Toyoyo Inoue, Oribe Sasaki, Yusaku Ozawa and Asahi Ken Matsushita.

On the other side, Miuradai also sent a starting lineup.

Uozumi's eyes were mainly focused on the tallest player in Miuradai, and he was the core of Miuradai - Shinichi Yano.

Yano Shinichi has 193 cm and 84 kg. Like Uozumi and Akagi, he is a traditional center.

In addition, the first-year Muramata Kengo is also in the starting lineup, and his position is small forward.

Miuratai's starting players are not low in height. Except for the point guard, the other four positions all exceed 180 cm. The overall height is not much different from Lingnan.

"so high!"

"I'm afraid it's two meters long!"

……

When Uozumi was warming up, no matter the audience, Miuradai players or coaches, their eyes subconsciously focused on Uozumi.

Swah~ Swah~ Swah~
In the warm-up stage, Yuzhu didn't dunk, and started to use hooks in various positions. His touch was hot, and he kept throwing the ball into the basket.

The hook has become Yuzhu's conventional weapon, which can effectively reduce his physical loss.
