Volume 2: Dormant Rebirth Chapter 006 Kataoka Teshin
Seidou High School Baseball Club, Supervisor's Office.
A tall and burly man wearing sunglasses was carefully looking through the freshmen's entrance test results.
This man is the actual head of Seidou High School's baseball team, Tetsujin Kataoka.
Kataoka originally graduated from Seidou.
This is the tradition of top universities. They only recognize students who graduated from their own schools.
Other minor departments are insignificant.
The heads of important departments all graduated from Qingdao.
For example, the baseball club supervisor, team leader, and admissions director.
That's all.
The chubby Minister Ohta and Takashima Rei, who possesses a pair of large weapons, sat on the sofa and discussed this year's new members.
"Ms. Takashima has good vision. The players you personally recruited won first place in all three items of the basic test. Miyuki-san's long throw was the best on the team, with a distance of 115 meters. That's two meters more than Chris's. Kuramochi-san is not bad either. His speed is far beyond the level of a high school student. If we train him well, he will definitely become an important force in our team. And Zhang Han-san..."
When talking about Zhang Han, Minister Ota suddenly couldn't find a suitable adjective.
This player is very good at everything and makes good use of his strengths, especially in striking, where he beat Aso, Miyuki and Yamaguchi to get the highest score in the first grade.
Minister Ota had a very strange feeling that Zhang Han was very useful.
There is no basis for this, he just feels that way.
No matter where this player is placed or what kind of task is assigned to him?
He should be able to do it well.
Moreover, he is very clear about his responsibilities and has very high execution ability.
If Ota were asked to evaluate Zhang Han, he could only say "very good".
In addition, ask him to add any adjectives or give a detailed introduction.
He really couldn't find the right and accurate words.
Takashima Rei smiled and nodded.
Obviously, she was also very proud of being able to recruit so many new players with potential at one go. Although these new players could not be transformed into combat power immediately, as long as they were there, the team would have hope.
"Supervisor, the five freshmen you have are the ones who have a chance to become combatants before the summer tournament. What do you think we should do with them? Or should we wait until after the orientation tournament to make arrangements?"
Takashima Rei stood up and walked towards Kataoka gracefully.
The five players she was referring to were the top five on Kataoka Takashi's list.
First place, Kazuya Miyuki, catcher. Potential SS, current strength A+.
Second place, Zhang Han, pitcher, first baseman, outfielder. In middle school, he mainly played these three positions. He is the main third batter of the Matsukata Little League. Even if he is not pitching, he stays on the field 70% of the time.
He was one of the core players in the Matsukata Little League team's runner-up finish in the national tournament.
Although Zhang Han's overall ranking is not as high as Yuki's, he has the most introductions.
It can be seen that the person who made this list is very optimistic about Zhang Han's future.
The third place , Shirasu Kenjiro, outfielder. He seems to have no presence and looks ordinary. Not to mention Zhang Han, Yuki is 8 blocks ahead of him.
But this person is very capable and is basically in the top three in every test.
If we were to choose a fighting force, even though this person doesn't have much presence, he's a suitable candidate.
Ultimately, baseball is all about strength. As long as the strength is strong enough, other details can be ignored.
This is the case with Baizhou, he is strong enough.
Fourth place, Yoichi Kuramochi, shortstop.
His striking and throwing abilities were not particularly outstanding, but he had very high potential in defense.
Although he has not taken any tests, his grades in high school were outstanding, and this trait was also demonstrated in the details.
The most important thing is his terrifying speed. As long as the timing is right, he can definitely become the team's killer.
So even though his other abilities are average, this one trick is enough to make him successful.
That speed alone is enough to put him on the list.
The last one is Takashi Aso, a first baseman, outfielder, and the fourth batter in junior high school.
It ranks among the best in all tests and has a high overall ranking.
Although there are still many people in this class of freshmen who have shown certain potential.
For example, Hiroshi Ono, Kawashima, Kawakami, Yamaguchi, Maezono, Naoto Kando, Kijima, etc.
Compared with the previous session, this session has many more promising talents.
But their characteristics are not prominent yet and their bodies are immature.
If you want to succeed, you still have a long way to go.
Unlike the previous few people, they have demonstrated abilities that are no less than those of the second-team players in some aspects.
There are even two people who can challenge an army in some aspects.
That's why Takashima Rei said that they have the opportunity to become the team's fighting force before the summer competition begins.
With so many new players, it is impossible for the Seidou High School baseball team to take care of them all from the beginning.
They must be screened at every level and trained with emphasis.
For example, the top few players are eligible to compete for the number. Even if they are not selected, they can wait until the third-year players graduate.
Their names will also appear on the list of the first army.
"Don't worry about their grades in middle school. Just look at the potential they have shown now. They are still very young, so they should focus on basic training first!"
Director Kataoka said calmly.
The contestants this year all have good potential, but their physical fitness is far from enough.
Not to mention comparing with the outstanding contestants, even compared with the contestants of the previous session, they are far behind.
"Kazuya Miyuki, Zhang Han, Hakushu and Kuramochi. When these four people are doing defense training, let them join the Second Army."
Finally, Director Kataoka added another sentence.
"Let them advance to the Second Army so soon? Isn't it too early?"
Although Minister Ohta is very optimistic about this year's freshmen, he is not mentally prepared to have them relegated to the second team just a few days after joining the team.
Generally speaking, this kind of thing would only start in May, after the spring competition was over.
"In normal basic training, they are still with the freshmen. They will only be assigned to the second army team during defense practice. For the time being, they will not be allowed to play practice games with the second team."
There was a gleam of brilliance under Director Kataoka's sunglasses.
"Looking at their defensive and offensive capabilities, they are particularly outstanding. It is not impossible for them to advance to the second army in advance."
The team was in a very bad condition. There were no other sophomores who could serve as the absolute main force except Yuuki and Chris.
The third-year players often laugh at the second-year players as the most useless generation.
But their own situation was not much better.
Kakuei Tanaka, Higashikiguni, Mayumi Hidezawa.
Apart from these three carriages, the strength of the others is just average.
