Basketball Myth: Super Guard
Chapter 320: State league, here I am!
Indiana's high school league is called the "crazy Indians" because they have no ranks, no first-level leagues, and second-level leagues. All teams compete for the only state championship.
The entire Indiana high school team is divided into several small leagues. For example, St. Joseph High School belongs to the South Bend League, as well as the Calvo League, Fort Wayne League, Notre Dame League, etc...
Each minor league champion automatically advances to the state league.
However, because some leagues may have a lot of strong teams, it is obviously unfair to other teams in this league to only allow the league champion to advance to the state league.
Because some teams in this league are not champions, but their strength is comparable to champions in other leagues, and even stronger than champion teams in other leagues.
Therefore, in addition to the automatic promotion of the championship team of each league to the state league, the state league will also have invitations to allow those teams that have not won their respective league championships but are strong enough to have the opportunity to participate in the state league. To prove your strength and participate in the state championship competition.
On the other hand, this rule also makes the state league more exciting and exciting.
There is often a situation where the champion team of a certain league encounters a team that has been invited to participate. The latter is only ranked second or third in the league, but after a fight, the former will survive. Pressed and rubbed on the floor and beat the champion into a dead dog.
This often makes fans feel excited.
Over time, this rule continued. In addition to the league championship teams, there are also some invited teams to participate.
There are a total of 19 minor leagues in Indiana, that is, there are 19 championship teams, but there are as many as 13 invited teams, and the two together form the participating teams in the first round of the state league.
A total of 32 teams participated in the competition. In the first round, the championship team and the invited team will be arranged as much as possible to fight against each other. The game will be determined by life and death. 32 teams will enter 16 and the top 16 will be determined.
After entering the top 16, the organizer will rank the team according to the team's previous record, team strength, etc., and list the No. 1 seed, No. 2 seed, and No. 3 seed...
Before Frank was at Signetcher High School, Signetcher High School won the South Bend League championship in the two seasons they have reached the top 16. In the top 16 rankings, Signetcher High School is even The top ten seeded team.
It's a pity that every time I reach the top 16, it is precisely because every time the ranking is a top ten seeded team, but in the end it always rolls over, and the psychological expectations and results are too different, and Frank leaves.
More than a week after school started, the state league was approaching.
At this moment, St. Joseph's high school players are feeling the pressure, and there is a lot less nonsense during training every day, and they have become silent.
After more than a week of training, Douglas, Charlie, Harold, and Peter lost their weight almost at a speed that was visible to the naked eye. It was miserable for several people.
But Frank didn't care at all. How much meat he ate during the winter vacation would be cut off now.
It's cool to indulge for a while, and then cry for your father and your mother, isn't it all for yourself?
However, Frank is still not satisfied with the current state of the team. During a winter vacation, except for Qin Hao and Kroger, everyone else was more or less slack. After more than a week, the state had not fully recovered. Let alone improve.
It's a pity that the school here has clear requirements, strictly stipulating the time for team training, coupled with cultural differences, everyone does not like to work overtime, including high school players.
So Frank couldn't start training too early.
The matchmaking arrangements for the first round of the state league were soon released. St. Joseph's High School's opponent in the first round was an invited team from the Fort Wayne League-St. Lawrence High School.
St. Lawrence High School is also well-known in Indiana. Frank also contacted St. Lawrence High School and wanted to recommend Qin Hao to go to school there, but was rejected.
St. Lawrence High School did not win the Fort Wayne League championship this season, but due to their strength, they still won an invitation to enter the state league as the second place in the Fort Wayne League.
Because St. Joseph's High School is the champion of the South Bend League and St. Lawrence's High School is just an invitation, the home game is at St. Joseph's High School.
"St. Laurent High School is not a weak team."
"Well, St. Laurent High School was the champion of the Fort Wayne League last season. Later, it successfully entered the top 16 and became the No. 8 seeded team. It reached the quarterfinals all the way and was eliminated in an 8-in-4 game. This season. Their two high-grade senior players graduated, and the team's strength has declined, but they still cannot be underestimated."
"Don't worry, our St. Joseph High School is not weak. We have Qin, Kroger and other outstanding players, and we are playing at home. We will definitely be able to advance to the top 16 smoothly."
The game has not yet started, and the audience is already full.
Entering the state league stage, the game is a life-and-death game. Almost every game both sides will fight fiercely, and they will be exceptionally exciting and attract much attention.
Therefore, there were a lot of fans here today, which can be said to be full. The stadium of St. Joseph's High School is not big, and the seats in the auditorium are full.
There are still many people standing in the aisle, or in the corner, intending to stand and watch the game.
At the same time, in the locker room.
A group of St. Joseph's high school players are sitting and preparing, and the noise from the outside is like thunder, passing into the locker room, making the players excited and a little nervous at the same time.
"I heard that St. Laurent High School is very strong."
"It doesn't matter, we are the champions of the South Bend League. Are you afraid that the team will not be invited?"
"Just..."
The players cheered each other up.
After all, they were eighth in the South Bend League last year, and they haven't made it to the state league for many years. All players are playing in the state league for the first time, and tension is inevitable.
"Crack!"
At this moment Frank opened the door and came in.
He knew that the players were a little nervous and smiled: "Don't be nervous, just play it as an ordinary game. There is actually no difference between a state league and a league game. It's just a little bit fierce."
"Ok."
Everyone nodded.
Frank said: "Okay, let's go, it's time for us to play."
Everyone got up and walked out of the locker room behind Frank. There was a huge boo from outside. You don't need to ask Qin Hao to know that it was the visiting team.
After a while, the boo weakened, and then turned into cheers, because the players of St. Joseph's High School played, the fans shouted loudly, many people called Qin Hao's name, the sound was like waves, sweeping the entire stadium.
Qin Hao waved his hand at the audience, looked at the players of Saint Laurent High School, his gaze swept away, but he couldn't help being surprised that he saw two people he knew.
