St. Joseph High School.
In the arena, the game is still going on.
Qin Hao was sitting on the bench, drinking Gatorade leisurely. With 3 minutes left in the fourth quarter, St. Joseph High School led by 8 points and has always had the upper hand. Canterbury High School basically has no chance to comeback up.
Frank also relaxed, sat down beside Qin Hao, and said, "Today's game should be won, but judging from the current situation, the next league games may not be very easy to play."
Before today, Frank actually discovered some problems. For example, the personal strength of St. Joseph High School players can only be regarded as above-average, and Kroger is the only one who can really make a move.
Others can only be regarded as the middle level.
And some substitute players, such as Charlie, Peter, Moore, and Miles, are a bit far-fetched even at the mid-range level.
Such a lineup, not to mention looking at the entire Indiana state, even in the South Bend league where St. Joseph High School is located, is at best a mid-level one.
St. Joseph High School's record last year also supports this point. Among the twelve teams in the South Bend League, St. Joseph High School ranked 8th.
With Qin Hao joining this season, the strength of St. Joseph High School will naturally increase greatly, but other players seem to have not improved much compared to last year.
This is another question.
Qin Hao is very strong, but basketball is a five-person sport.
"Frank." In private, Qin Hao and Frank are more casual and don't need to address the coach. Qin Hao comforted: "Don't worry too much, it's only October, and the league will last until March next year. We still have time." Said Then, Qin Hao looked at his teammates on the court, "Harold, Kelly, Miles, Terry...they still have time to improve and grow, don't they?"
"Qin." Frank smiled wryly, "The league will indeed continue until March next year, but we must be able to pass the league and enter the state league. If we can't enter the state league, our season will end in December. It's like it's over."
According to the league schedule, from late October to December is the league game, and then there will be a holiday, about half a month to a month, and there will be no games in between.
Then in late January, or at the end of January, the league continued.
But this time is the state league stage.
Ending the season in December is the end of the season for teams that don't make it to the state league.
"Frank, don't worry, we will definitely make it to the state league." Qin Hao's eyes glowed with confidence, "I didn't come here just to have fun in the league."
Frank squeezed out a smile. He still has great confidence in Qin Hao. If it weren't for Qin Hao, he didn't think St. Joseph High School would have a chance to hit the state league.
But even with Qin Hao around, it's not easy.
There are twelve teams in the South Bend League, and there are many strong teams among them. If St. Joseph High School wants to enter the state league, it must first win the South Bend League Championship.
"Next, we have to practice hard." Frank's eyes swept over the players, and every player felt his vest go cold.
In fact, Frank was mentally prepared when he accepted the offer from St. Joseph High School. If St. Joseph High School was very strong, it would not have agreed to the conditions for him to bring Qin Hao to join.
It is precisely because St. Joseph High School is not strong enough and the team has many problems, it needs an excellent coach like Frank, so it is particularly easy to speak and agree to his request.
But in Frank's view, it was St. Joseph High School that took advantage of it.
In a blink of an eye, the game is over.
With a score of 87:81, St. Joseph High School defeated Canterbury High School by 6 points and won the warm-up match.
Qin Hao scored a game-high 22 points today. He only shot 11-pointers in the game, and his 7-of-[-] three-pointers were amazing.
In addition, St. Joseph High School's Kroger scored 17 points in the second half of the third quarter and the performance in the fourth quarter, making him the second-leading player for the team.
Of course, the efficiency is far worse than Qin Hao.
As for Canterbury High School, Dalton scored the most points with 15 points, 6 rebounds, and 2 assists. Others scored sporadically, not many.
After the game, the players from both sides embraced, and the players from Canterbury High School could only forcefully smile. They lost to St. Joseph High School by 6 points in the warm-up match last year, and this year it is like this again.
Even losing points are the same.
Could it be that there is some kind of magic spell?
"Hey, you're playing great."
"come on."
Qin Hao hugged the players from Canterbury High School and said beautiful scenes, but the expressions of the players from Canterbury High School were a little stiff.
If it weren't for Qin Hao's 7 three-pointers today, they wouldn't have lost. It can be said that they lost to Qin Hao's three-pointers.
But on second thought, the players at Canterbury High School are a little lucky-fortunately, we are not in the same league as St. Joseph High School.
Thinking about it this way, they were looking forward to it. They didn't know what the South Bend League teams would look like when they met Qin Hao. They must be worse than us.
Sure enough, people still have to learn to comfort themselves.
After this game, Qin Hao became completely famous in St. Joseph High School, and everyone knew the title of "Three-point King".
Fortunately, this is just a warm-up match. Most of the people who came to watch the game were St. Joseph High School students and locals. Canterbury High School, who lost the game, held back the loss and did not want to publicize it, and wanted to see other teams stumble. In his mind, he was also tight-lipped about this game.
So Qin Hao's "Three-point King" is currently only circulated in St. Joseph High School, even if it spreads to other places, no one believes it.
This made Frank feel a little comforted in his heart, but he still held Qin Hao and told Qin Hao: "Qin, we still have to keep a low profile, and we can't be so high profile anymore."
"Then how do I play the next game?" Qin Hao asked.
"No." Frank replied simply, "Anyway, I'm also planning to train the other players well. After a year has passed, I haven't made much progress. It can be seen that this is not a talent problem, but that they didn't work hard. Taking advantage of the warm-up match, Give them a good workout."
Qin Hao suddenly nodded and agreed.
One year passed, no matter how poor the talent was, and he was still in his teens, he should have improved after one year, but there were almost no players in St. Joseph High School.
This is not a question of talent, but not enough hard work.
Speaking of it, the United States is similar to the domestic side in this regard. The training is actually not heavy, and it mainly depends on your own efforts.
"In the next half month, Miles and the others will have bad luck." Qin Hao can imagine that Miles and the others will probably undergo hellish training next.
Not to mention, I'm looking forward to it!
