Getting on the bus to Hyogo Prefecture, the friends of the Qingdo High School baseball team were all excited.
Perhaps for players from other teams, they must be happy to be able to score in Koshien.
But deep down, there is bound to be anxiety.
After all, in Jiaziyuan, the people they are about to encounter are all tycoons from all over the country.
In the face of these tyrannical powers, can they defeat their opponents? That in itself is a big problem.
Not to mention that what they now represent is no longer just their own team, but also their respective hometowns.
This sense of honor, while inspiring them, inevitably brings them enormous pressure.
If after entering Koshien, the first game will end in a fiasco?
At that time, what kind of face do they have to go back to see their parents and folks?
This kind of worry seems to be unfounded, but it is not.
The cruelty of Koshien is even more terrifying than the regional competition.
Regional competitions are not so well-known, and even if they fail, not many people will be able to see them.
Not to mention that he is still at the door of his own house. Even if there is something humiliating, he will go back to the arms of his family to find some comfort.
Koshien is different!
During the two weeks of Koshien in the summer, Koshien activities are revolving around the country.
This is already a social movement.
Any performance in Jiaziyuan will spread all over the country in a fast-paced mode.
If there is any sensational performance, not only in the island country, but even some countries with less developed baseball, can even hear the news of Jiaziyuan.
It's like being on the mainland!
Isn't the news that a group of pig-raising teenagers won the runner-up in Jiaziyuan on the hot search?
This is difficult for even their first-line big stars, except for those actors in the island country who make small films.
It is not difficult to see how prosperous Jiaziyuan is?
The major leagues even have scouts stationed here for a long time, just to interview the teenagers in the early days of Jiaziyuan.
Winning on such an occasion is, of course, honoring the ancestors.
If you lose miserably, it can be regarded as throwing people at the door.
Some teams that are not very strong, or teams that have just scored in Koshien.
It is understandable that players will feel anxious.
As for the friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team, of course they would not have such a problem.
For the Qingdo High School baseball team, this is their third time participating in Koshien.
The vast majority of players have a good mentality, they are here to make history.
As for embarrassing them.
Excuse me.
With their strength, there seems to be no other team with such terrifying strength in the whole country.
The friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team have such confidence in their hearts.
No matter who the opponent is? They all had the confidence to rub each other **** the ground.
Under such circumstances, how could they be so uneasy in their hearts?
Not to mention.
Those teams who have just entered Koshien are not familiar with Koshien's form and strong teams.
They will feel apprehensive.
Qingdao High School was different.
Almost all the famous and powerful teams in the country have played against each other? Speaking of which, those who can compete with them for the championship are also some old rivals. Under such circumstances, what is there to fear about the Qingdao High School baseball team?
There is a concept here that I want to explain clearly to you.
It is said that the teams in the non-fighting zone must not be as strong as the teams in the fierce war zone?
This statement is both true and false.
To say that the teams in the non-heavy battle zone are not strong, or that the teams in the fierce battle zone are strong, these are relative terms.
For example, for example, West Tokyo, which is now the No. 1 fierce battle area in the country.
In this theater, the teams that can make it to the quarter-finals are not even worse than some champion teams in non-fighting areas.
Their strength is strong, mainly comprehensive strength.
When it comes to the top teams, in fact, the teams in the fierce battle zone are not necessarily much better than the teams in the non-fiery battle zone.
It's like the Hokkaido troll Otsunomaki.
In terms of non-fighting areas, Hokkaido, which is covered with snow and ice all the year round, must be counted as one.
To tell the truth, that environment is not suitable for playing baseball at all.
They spend more time clearing snow than even playing baseball.
In such a place, how could there be so many powerful teams competing with each other?
That is impossible!
In the fierce battle zone, the overall quality of the team is generally higher because of the fierce competition in the nest within the same zone.
There are naturally more strong teams.
The teams in the non-fighting zone, because the internal competition environment is not so big, and there are not so many talents.
Therefore, in general, there are not as many strong teams as in the Guild War Zone.
But that doesn't mean their championship team isn't great.
Although these teams, in their own regions may not be able to accept enough challenges.
But don't forget, they still have a national stage.
On the field of Koshien, aren't they competing with national teams? Under this promotion, their top team is naturally very strong.
Friends who have seen Slam Dunk should know that Hainan High School is the overlord of Kanagawa.
It has dominated Kanagawa for 16 consecutive years. In comparison, Kanagawa is naturally not a fierce battle zone.
In the fierce battle zone, no team can do this to this level. A strong enough opponent, plus a little luck.
In the past 16 years, I might have been eliminated several times.
But Hainan colleges and universities are still the top strong schools in the country. In the previous year, even reached the national semi-finals.
In today's high school baseball world, this rule is naturally the same.
Even in some weak regions, powerful opponents may be born.
And this is what the Qingdao High School baseball team is most afraid of at this stage.
Those old opponents who know the basics, although they are powerful, can pose enough threats to the Qingdao High School baseball team.
But it is precisely because they know each other so clearly that generally speaking, the stronger side will become the final winner.
It is precisely because of mutual understanding that there are few variables during the game.
Instead, it was the dark horses that came out of nowhere.
Because it was completely unknown before, it might bring more trouble to the Qingdao High School baseball team.
When the friends of the Qingdo High School baseball team went to Hyogo Prefecture, the battle table was already sent out.
The Qingdao High School baseball team was not very lucky, and did not qualify for a win without a fight in the first round.
Fewer than fifty teams fought each other to select the top 32.
In fact, in the first round, there are many teams that do not need to participate in the battle.
According to the rules of previous years, teams like West Tokyo came out.
The Organizing Committee will give appropriate care.
In addition to being deliberately singled out, it is generally difficult to get them to play all 6 games.
Not to mention something like Qingdo High School.
As last summer's king, this spring's champion.
The Qingdo High School baseball team should take it for granted that they don't have to play in the first round.
But the organizing committee didn't do that. Instead, it deliberately arranged one more game for the Qingdao High School baseball team This is because the Qingdao High School baseball team had a lot of people watching the game.
Let the Qingdao high school baseball team play the opening game, which will greatly stimulate the market.
On the other hand, it is also to set up obstacles for the Qingdo High School baseball team.
Qing Dao became the only legend!
This is not something everyone wants to see, especially people from other regions.
Add a little hurdle to the Qingdao High School baseball team within the limits allowed by the rules, and they can do it.
"Who is the opponent in Game 1? Which group are you in?"
The battle table was uploaded on the mobile phone, and the friends were discussing excitedly.
Group A didn't, Group B didn't, Group C didn't...
It's too abnormal. With the reputation of the Qingdao High School baseball team, it should be in Group A anyway.
This means that the organizing committee did not secretly attack, and the friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team would not believe it if they were beaten to death.
"The road is never smooth! What you have to do next is to level the uneven road for him."
Director Kataoka said very seriously.
His remarks are very in line with the feelings of the friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team.
Yes, the road is never smooth.
If you want to become a legend, it is even more impossible to be flat.
Qing Dao is in Group G and is about to play in the opening game.
The opponent is Xijing!
