Chapter 100: Shura Field
There are only three kilometers to the finish line, which is almost close to this training camp.
But at this moment, Yi Fan's body reached its physiological limit.
The head went blank, and the tense nerves were like a blown fuse.
Suddenly, the whole person was completely unconscious, his body went limp, and he fell on the runway with a thud.
Such a picture has appeared too many times in this training camp.
If you can't stand up, a health care provider will take you aside and wait for a break before getting checked.
If it's okay, you can train again. But the problem now is that there is no time to rest.
Johnson looked indifferently at Yi Fan who fell to the ground, if he missed this last chance, he would not be in the squad for the next year.
Rogers ran past Yi Fan, although he was also exhausted, but with the accumulation of the previous months, without knowing the trick, he simply gnawed down this training camp.
In Yifan's blur, he vaguely saw Rogers' figure running farther and farther.
He wanted to catch up.
He wants to be in the squad.
He didn't want to lose.
But, why does the body not move?
I'm so tired, so let's just rest like this.
It doesn't matter what the big list is, it's okay to wait for next year.
All kinds of thoughts slowly hypnotized Yi Fan's thoughts, and he was about to close his eyes completely.
"Yi Fan! Get up! ”
At the last moment, a pair of powerful hands scooped him up, pulled him on his shoulders, and dragged him forward.
Yi Fan opened his eyes with difficulty, and saw a familiar and sturdy figure in a daze.
Yi Fan used all his strength to spit out two words from his throat.
"Wang, Yang?"
Wang Yang was about to finish the assessment, but after he saw Yifan fall from afar, he rushed over as soon as possible.
"Wake up! Hurry up! No time! Wang Yang said anxiously.
Time passes minute by minute, and every second is so precious that there is no room for waste.
"You put me down, I really can't move." Yi Fan said almost pleadingly. All these days are the same, tired, tired. Even the physical strength monster Wang Yang is enough to choke.
After lying down in the dormitory every night, I barely had the strength to get up.
If you drag down your good buddies because of yourself, it is definitely not what Yifan wants to see.
"You helped me before, and it's time for me to help you this time!"
Wang Yang carried the Yifan and accelerated forward.
Just as Yi Fan was about to break free, a man appeared on the other side of him and held him tightly.
"Liu, it's coming, come on!"
Matthews said with a smile.
With his help, the speed of progress has more than doubled.
The last mile,
The last 500 meters,
The last 100 meters.
The afterglow of the setting sun has faded from the horizon, and the numbers on the cold display screen dance relentlessly.
Each time the clock beats, the training session is reduced by one second.
Those who are struggling on the track, hope is one less.
Five fifty-eight, five fifty-nine!
At the last moment before the hand shook, Yifan, with the support of Wang Yang and Matthews, finally took the last step, and the progress of the training camp reached 100%.
Dozens of seconds later, head coach Johnson looked down at his watch and announced:
"The training camp is over!"
After hearing this, every player who participated in the training camp sat on the ground, some of them looked relaxed, some hugged each other, but some of them were full of frustration and couldn't say a word.
A total of 188 people participated in the training, but only 85 passed the training, and more than half of them were stopped from the list.
However, this also means that one third of the people still need to be screened out from the list of fifty-three people, and the assessment is not over yet.
After the training camp, the players returned to school for a short three-day break to relax their tired bodies.
But the coaching staff has only just begun.
Johnson and the other coaches have the data for this training camp in their hands, and the next thing they have to do is how to prepare for the second round of screening.
"Like last year, do you play in groups? A few rounds later with the data to speak. The assistant coach suggested. This is the simplest and most comparable way and is widely used in schools.
"But this method will make them want to brush up on the data, and the team players will suffer a lot. What's more, this year we have plenty of time to screen, not as anxious as last year, I think we can think of something else. Diana said.
After all, the competition is not for one person, and it is easy to cause deviations by simply using data to assess.
Johnson nodded. Last year, because of the national championship and cup invitational tournaments, it was almost delayed until April to start the reorganization of the new team, compared to this year, there is still a lot of time, there is no need to rush at all.
But when Coach Johnson was about to further arrange the second round of training, his mobile phone rang. At first glance, it was the vice principal in charge of the team who called.
The vice-principal is nominally the leader of the team, but in fact he doesn't care about anything, at most he acts as a microphone to convey important notices. The team relies heavily on head coach Johnson for its operations.
"Mr. Vice Chancellor, what is the matter? We're in a meeting. Johnson said, rubbing his eyes.
But after listening to the vice principal's words, Johnson's left hand rubbing his eyes also listened slowly, and the whole person seemed to be still, which made everyone else on the scene feel very strange.
"Mr. Vice Chancellor? Can you say that again? You're saying we received an invitation from the NCAA to play in the wild card of the National Championship? ”
Until he put down the phone in his hand, Johnson still couldn't slow down. It sounds incredible, how could they be selected for the Wild Card this year with a miserable record and no new stars?
However, the vice president and the NCAA committee confirmed the matter, and the other party stated that the invitation letter was genuine, not wrong, and that the target was the University of Michigan.
"It's incredible, it's unbelievable." The assistant coach had an expression that wanted to laugh but couldn't.
"Could it be that the president found someone on the NCAA committee through some relationship?" Diana leaned into Johnson's ear and whispered.
There are several types of wild card spots, with one referral spot for each of the 32 teams, twelve spots for the NCAA selection committee, twelve spots for the BCS Association, and a total of twelve spots for major tournament sponsors, American football magazines, television stations, and the official American football website.
In total, there are a total of 64 wild card spots, which seems to be a lot, but there is only one team that can fight their way out of the encirclement and compete in the national championship.
Choosing one of the sixty-four means that you must win six games in a row, and you can't make a single mistake, which can be said to be the most tragic Shura field in early spring, and the chance of appearing is extremely slim.
