Chapter 304: That's a Champion
The final of the men's high jump college group was fierce and seemed to be very stale.
At a height of 2.18 meters, Liu Xiaohu was not surprised, and he still succeeded in his first attempt.
At this point, he and Lin Yahui didn't think there was anything remarkable, after all, Liu Xiaohu was able to jump this height almost every time during his usual training.
To both of them, they were a little surprised that No. 4 player Sun Hao followed closely behind, and he also successfully jumped 2.18 meters on his first attempt.
As far as they know, Sun Hao's best result in training is only 2.18 meters, and he doesn't succeed every time, but who would have thought that in the tense competition, Sun Hao actually succeeded in the first attempt, which is really a bit unbelievable.
As for the other two competitors, they failed in all three attempts, and the final time was fixed at 2.16m.
"It seems that this Sun Hao should be a competition-type player, and he can perform exceptionally when he arrives at the competition."
Lin Yahui looked at Sun Hao, who was still communicating with the coach not far away, with a solemn face, and said to Liu Xiaohu, who was standing aside,
"Maybe in this race, he can break through his limit and successfully cross the 2.20m, which is a fierce opponent!
But it doesn't matter, 2.20m is not an insurmountable height for us, but if we want to win the championship, we will have to try to jump 2.22m. ”
As he spoke, he turned his head, stared at Liu Xiaohu with burning eyes, and asked with an encouraging look on his face,
"Xiaohu, do you have confidence?"
"Yes!"
Liu Xiaohu didn't think about it, and nodded vigorously.
He was also very excited to meet a powerful opponent in the competition, only in this way, the gold medal he won was full of weight, and if he could easily win the championship, wouldn't it be boring?
Besides, he was still waiting to win the gold medal and go to the celebration banquet carefully prepared by Senior Brother Jiang.
As long as he thought of the delicacies made by Senior Brother Jiang himself, Liu Xiaohu's mouth couldn't help but secrete saliva crazily, and the desire to win the championship was like a weed in spring, growing wildly in his heart!
"Just have faith!"
Lin Yahui patted Liu Xiaohu's shoulder heavily, and said excitedly,
"Now everyone else is almost eliminated, only you and No. 4 are left, play hard, you will definitely do it!"
Liu Xiaohu didn't speak, he pursed his lips vigorously, his two eyes stared at the high crossbar in front of him, and he felt an inexplicable momentum suddenly emerge from his body, constantly stimulating himself to run forward......
Champion, I'm coming!
……
The excitement on the track and field field is not limited to this.
When Liu Xiaohu began to sprint towards the championship with enthusiasm, the women's 800-meter sprint final was about to kick off.
In the track and field team of Jiangzhou University, there are several female sprinters, but their training results on weekdays are not outstanding, let alone winning the championship in this provincial games, and they are not even confident that they can successfully enter the finals.
Not only are they not confident, but even coach Yin Tao will not have any hope for them.
To put it mildly, the reason why Yin Tao brought them to participate in the competition was purely to make up the numbers, so as to show that the Jiangda track and field team was "full of talents".
But when it was time to compete, the performance of these female sprinters surprised everyone in the Jiangda track and field team!
In the preliminary and semi-finals of the women's 800-meter sprint event that ended two days ago, there were only 3 female sprinters in the Jiangda track and field team who participated in the event, and two of them actually broke into the final for the first time!
One of them, a sophomore girl named He Lifang, entered the final with the second place in the semi-final group, only 0.03 seconds slower than the first place in the group!
This also means that as long as He Lifang still maintains her excellent performance in the semifinals in today's finals, then, not to mention the champion, at least one medal is safe.
When Yin Tao saw that two female players had entered the women's 800-meter sprint final, he was stunned for a while, and then he was ecstatic!
He has never had the expectation of He Lifang and others to win medals, and now He Lifang and others have such a wonderful performance, which is simply an unexpected joy!
What does this mean?
This shows that he has good guidance from Coach Yin, which allows the players who originally performed mediocre to achieve excellent results on the field!
For a while, Yin Tao felt that his tail was about to rise, and the smile on his face had not stopped since the semi-finals.
Since Lin Yahui retired from the national team and came to teach in the track and field team of Jiangzhou University, Yin Tao has always had some gains and losses, and he is always worried that one day Lin Yahui will steal the title of head coach of his track and field team.
After all, Lin Yahui is a well-known athlete who has won the men's high jump Asian Games, and although Yin Tao has also been an athlete in the track and field provincial team, he has not achieved any dazzling results at all.
Compared to the two, he will feel a little inferior.
But now, all the worries and apprehensions before were like bubbles in the sun, suddenly disappeared, and his heart was full of confidence.
Because, even Lin Yahui can't train athletes with mediocre performance to the level of breaking into the finals of the Provincial Games!
Yin Tao's smugness lasted until the day of the finals, and he suddenly came to his senses:
It seems too early to rejoice, after all, there is still a final waiting for you!
It is a happy event that his athletes can reach the final, but they still don't stand on the podium after all!
Only He Lifang and others win medals in the finals, that is the real glory, and even with him as a coach, his status in the sports academy will rise.
Thinking of this, Yin Tao's whole person became excited, and before it was time to appear, he called He Lifang and another girl who also broke into the finals over, and earnestly instructed:
"Xiao He, your performance in the semi-finals yesterday was very outstanding, and I won't set any goals for you in the finals later, so as not to put too much pressure on you, you just need to do your best.
Especially Xiao He, although you achieved good results in the semi-finals, there are still some shortcomings, and I noticed that you have shown a lack of follow-up in the final 200m sprint stage yesterday.
What does this mean? It shows that your physical distribution is not reasonable enough.
So, in the upcoming finals, you don't need to rush too hard to let the others take the lead, you just have to hold on tightly.
In this way, you can ensure that you have enough physical strength in the impact phase, as long as you have enough physical energy, it is not a problem to accelerate and catch up in the sprint stage, and leave your opponent behind! ”
Speaking of this, Yin Tao clenched his fists, stared at the two female athletes standing in front of him tightly, and said with glowing eyes,
"Xiao He, you must come on!
If one of you can win the championship, not only can you eat the celebration banquet that Chef Xiao Jiang has carefully prepared for you, but I can also promise you that I will personally invite you to the No. 7 dining room for a big meal! ”
If they can really win the women's 800-meter sprint, what is a big meal in the No. 7 dining room?
Even if you eat it in Dining Room 7 for a week, it's worth it!
That's a championship!
