Chapter 351 Harding Valley College

Harding Valley College is the opponent of Lausanne College in the semi-finals.

"This team lost to Greenville High School in the semifinals last season and failed to advance to the finals,"

In the coaching staff meeting preparing for the Final Four, when they just learned about their opponents, Coach Harper said.

"Although they lost to Greenville High School, and we defeated Greenville High School in the previous quarterfinals. According to the relationship between victory and defeat, we have already defeated Harding Valley College, but such a relationship between victory and defeat obviously has no reference. It’s worth it, because today’s Harding Valley College is no longer the Harding Valley that it was a year ago,,,”

Coach Harper continued to speak, making the other three assistants a little confused.

Maybe they don't know much about their opponents in the semi-finals.

The chief teaching assistant and assistant teaching assistant should know something, the most important thing is that Lan Shengli should know nothing about this school.

Harding Valley College, like Lausanne College, is a private high school in Tennessee, but unlike Lausanne College, which is a noble school, Harding Valley College is a "civilian school".

It is even considered the "most friendly private school" in Tennessee.

Because this high school has been prepared for those blacks who work on farms or some enterprises, do heavy physical labor or work all day and have no time to look after their children.

So most of the students in this school are black.

In China, we call it "migrant children's school".

It is precisely because of this that the students here are more energetic than those in other places. They train harder and are more able to endure hardships.

Because they want to use sports to change their lives, they want to change their families, they want to improve their living conditions.

After all, in the NBA, there are already too many black children from the slums. Through their own efforts and outstanding skills, they have become an NBA player and received an annual salary of tens of millions, completely changing themselves, his family, Even the fate of his entire family.

Therefore, the resilience of Harding Valley College may be the strongest among all Tennessee high schools.

And Harper also said before that Harding Valley College has never won a game until the end of the game, from the group stage to the knockout round throughout the season.

Harding Valley College basically made the game lose suspense in advance.

However, there are times when they lose the game, and that is when they have secured the first place in the group, and they let the team play as substitute players.

The entire interstate game has been played until now, and Harding Valley College can be said to be the team with the highest hopes of winning the championship.

Having said so much, it has already been shown that the opponent faced by the Lausanne Academy is definitely not ordinary.

This is why Lan Shengli treated this opponent so cautiously before.

Because an opponent is so strong that no team has been able to drag them to the end of the game. This is a terrible thing.

While talking, Lausanne College has already set off for Harding Valley College.

"Huh~, the semi-finals have begun, come on~!!!"

The bus arrived at its destination quickly.

Lan Shengli got out of the car, took a deep breath, and sighed.

The team members also got out of the car one after another and started the final warm-up before the game.

Walking into the campus, the whole atmosphere is full of simplicity, with teaching buildings made of red bricks and tiles, a relatively simple playground, and a basketball hall that looks like a factory building.

"Such a school can enter the semi-finals, which shows that the most important thing in campus basketball is strength. Funding and support are not that important. This should be the biggest difference compared with professional basketball~!!!"

Lan Shengli looked around the entire campus environment and sighed.

Soon, the players and the coach walked into the arena.

Rather than saying that this is a basketball stadium, it is better to say that this is a comprehensive gymnasium.

There are messy lines drawn on the floor, some are for volleyball and some are for badminton. Although some repairs have been made for the basketball game, the chaotic floor boundaries may really easily affect the players.

Some sports facilities placed on both sides of the field also confirm that this is not just a world of basketball.

After all, this venue is the only sports venue in the entire Harding Valley College.

The fixed seats basically mean that there are about 1500 seats on both sides of the stadium, and there are some temporary seats on both sides of the stadium, which together can accommodate about [-] people.

The stadium basically doesn't have any good lighting facilities. The sunlight projected from the two large glass windows may be the best light source. The game is at four o'clock in the afternoon, so the light should not be a problem.

"It's probably the worst away game I've ever played,"

"Yeah, for such a strong team, the school should have some financial support~!"

"I almost can't find the three-point line~!"

The players looked at the field, shook their heads, and sighed.

"Although I had some expectations about the difficulty of this venue, I never expected it to be so difficult. Does such a condition really meet the requirements of the competition~?!"

Harper looked around too, sighing.

"Fortunately, the floor is well maintained, not slippery, and has not been excessively damaged by other projects on it, but compared to our own arena, or the arena at Greenville High School before, it is really bad. Some,,,"

Lan Shengli stepped on the floor with his foot, rubbed it back and forth twice, and said.

"Okay, everyone, change your clothes and warm up~!"

Harper greeted the players.

"Most of our players are coming to this venue for the first time, so I think we should warm up as much as possible, especially familiar with the sight here. When I first entered the stadium, I found that the roof of the stadium A few headlights can only be used when the sky is completely dark, and our game that starts at four o'clock can't wait until it gets dark, so basically we rely on the sun's light, and the sun's light is probably in the dark. After we played in the second half, it was basically the fastest time for the sun to set. According to the current position of the sun, it is very likely that it will disappear from the two large glass windows, and the sight line will become very poor at that time, maybe ha The Ding Valley players have adapted, but we have had a hard time adapting~!!! So we, "

Lan Shengli observed meticulously and said directly.

"So we should try to take the lead in the first half as much as possible, right~?!"

Coach Harper continued.

"That's right, this is the best~!"

Lan Shengli replied in an affirmative tone.
