"7-0!"
"0-7!"
"7-5!"
"Eh"
"They performed pretty well."
Looking at the fresh results that were constantly coming out, Reiko made some statistics and was very happy.
Because this proves that there are great newcomers coming this year.
Although it cannot be compared with the predecessors of his generation, it is more than enough compared with Imayoshi and others.
"It's no problem for these people to get a score of 90 or above from me."
The subsequent scores are scored one by one, because the performance of the confrontation leading to the tie-break will be important because many tests are castrated.
Midorima stood behind her, condescendingly looking at the scores written in the book. There were even special notes on the player's shortcomings and strengths.
After last year's training, Reiko was able to see in a short time the areas where these newcomers were lacking and where they were good at.
[Kotaro Hayama (95 points): Sprinting and swinging speed are very fast, but the stamina is insufficient. It is easy to fall into a situation of physical exhaustion in a stalemate and lacks endurance. 】
[Teppei Muyoshi (95 points): The defensive field is very large, the body balance is very stable, and the technical foundation is very solid, but the flexibility is not enough. 】
[Nebutani Nagakichi (90 points): Very powerful, but lacking in technique and speed. 】
[Reo Mibuchi (100 points): An all-rounder who is excellent in all aspects and has no obvious shortcomings yet. 】
[Hanamiya Makoto (93 points): His abilities are pretty good in all aspects, but he seems to have strange little moves and bad habits when playing, which need to be investigated. 】
[Kebin Smith (97 points): There is no problem except for the lack of strength. 】
It's not just a round of competition, but the results of repeated observations three times with different players.
Midorima thinks Reiko's judgment is very accurate. Not surprisingly, these people should be the ones who can become the main candidates this year.
Unlike some schools where only a few people can become main players, Teikou is divided into two levels: main players → reserve players.
Those who can keep up will be the main selection and have a chance to play in the competition.
Therefore, there is no specific limit on the number of people who can be selected.
After all, Akaashi and others alone already have 12 regular candidates, which has long exceeded the personnel allocation for the competition.
If some of them are promoted this year, there will be more regular candidates.
But this is not something that is difficult to accept, because for Akashi and the others, who are already in their third year, training new people is still very important.
It's impossible for them to just graduate, and then Di Guang follow Mu Zhiteng's example and get blown away with gold coins, right?
Although Imayoshi and the others will still be at the bottom next year, they cannot stably hold on to the national championship without extraordinary strength.
"Did you forget something?"
Around the end of the tie-break test, Midorima reminded Reiko.
"Well?"
Looking at Midorima with confusion, she didn't remember what she had forgotten for a moment.
"If there is a player like Kuroko who can only specialize in doubles"
"You have failed half of your test."
Pointing out a very critical issue, Midorima spoke in detail.
"Ah! Such a thing does happen."
"However, even if there are players like that, the performance in the first two tests should be different from ordinary people."
After coming back to her senses, Reiko realized that she had overlooked the existence of such a player.
After all, junior high school competitions are not just singles, there are also doubles.
The power exerted by the adapted double team is much stronger than that of one person.
Kuroko is the "legend" on the doubles ceiling in the junior high school world.
Everyone knows that he is not very good in singles, but his doubles ability is top-notch.
Therefore, this type of players has long attracted the attention of many people and opened their minds.
"You made a mistake."
"Even Kuroko didn't do anything extraordinary at first."
"In singles, he couldn't even beat Kise, who was playing for the first time."
Sighing, Midorima did not remain silent as usual, but continued talking.
"Except for Akaashi and Shirazu who noticed his strengths, he wasn't even noticed by the rest of us at first."
Reminiscent of the time when they first joined the club, none of them took Heizi seriously at that time.
Then after Shirazu and Kuroko teamed up to beat up Kagami and Aomine, they gained attention.
It was after that that Kuroko began to shine in the doubles field and gradually created his own "legend".
"There is such a thing."
"I've never heard of it."
Aida Reiko rubbed her head with her hands, which opened her eyes.
Because of the active relationship between her seniors last year, she subconsciously thought that even Kuroko would perform very well in the beginning.
Now that I heard Midorima say this, I also knew where the blind spot was.
However, Midorima didn't blame her for anything. After all, who told them to get stronger and stronger, so much so that they ignored the fact that in the initial stage, they were not very supermodels.
And no one except the person involved would know what happened at that time.
"In this case, I'm afraid we will have to play one more play-off round."
"If we really get rid of players like that"
"It's too bad."
Tilting her head and speaking to Midorima somewhat embarrassedly, Reiko smiled awkwardly.
"It's okay, I just made an appointment to train with Gao Wei today, nothing else."
"Go on, I will help you observe together."
After pushing up his glasses, Midorima did not dislike or leave, but spoke kindly.
For Kagami and the others, Midorima is not that easy to talk to, but he is somewhat patient when dealing with these juniors.
"Okay! It was indeed the right thing to call Midorima-senpai! Long live!!"
"If it were Senior Aomine and the others, I'm afraid they would have run away long ago."
Reiko jumped up excitedly, and Reiko also breathed a sigh of relief. After all, there were many new people joining, and she spent too much energy and time observing them one by one.
It will affect your judgment later.
"Then, senior, it should be okay to play the tie-break in doubles, right?"
Considering the time issue, it is impossible to directly play a set to determine the winner. Although there are many courts, the number of people who can observe is limited, and the process takes too long. When will nearly 200 people play?
"Let them fight for the right to serve."
"As for how to form a team, that depends on drawing lots."
I originally wanted to let them find their own partners, but that would be a bit too deliberate, so I rejected it.
"Hehe, that sounds good."
"Then I'll sort it out right away."
"Let them rest for a while, they should be able to catch up in time."
Fortunately, it was relatively early to gather the staff today, so Reiko had enough time to prepare.
Otherwise, if you are in a hurry and cannot complete the task when the time comes, you will definitely be taught a lesson by Akashi.
She still doesn't want to be so embarrassed. After all, she is determined to surpass Momoi-senpai!
ps: Make up for yesterday’s post.
The change in working hours starting in July has been difficult.
Normal working hours are from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and there is an overtime period from 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. in the evening.
Usually there are few things to do, but when there are too many things to do, I am so tired that I have no time to write.
Today has been a typical busy day, and I can barely keep my eyelids open due to fatigue.
This is why the increase in the last month or so has been pitiful.
Regular readers know that I was very diligent in updating and returning chapters.
But now it's basically broken. It took me a long time to return a chapter.
