Cheers and shouts were surging in my ears. All the players and coaches gathered bustlingly in the center of the stadium, taking photos and waiting for the photographer to click the shutter. One or two of them couldn't wait to start singing.
Although this is only the league championship, it is the first time to defend the title in ten years. This is still a rare breakthrough. This also makes everyone full of confidence in the upcoming United States Championship, including Martin who also joined the celebration——
What's more, this is a victory over the Trojans. Defeating the Trojans in any game at any time is worthy of celebration!
"Ah ah ah, champion! Really a champion!"
Purcell roared at Gawain like a little flea, and he could feel the overflowing happiness all over his body, so that Gawain and MacDonald both laughed heartily, but Purcell turned towards Thompson and Bramer
They rushed over and shouted tirelessly over and over again.
Turning his head, Gawain could see MacDonald looking down at the gold medal around his neck.
The league champion will first be awarded a trophy, and then each player can have a gold medal for his personal collection.
Macdonald's eyes were so focused and devoted, as if he was looking at his lover, and the corners of his mouth turned up involuntarily.
Gawain can understand Macdonald's mood——
The last time the Bruins defeated the Trojans at home, although they won, McDonald lost his game and was ridiculed by reporters the next day. Although McDonald also knew that the team's victory
That's the most important thing, but it still doesn't feel good inside.
Today, Macdonald not only won, but also became the final hero. The joy and happiness are difficult to describe accurately in words.
"Hey!"
Gawain lightly bumped Macdonald with his shoulder and said jokingly, "Don't look at the gold medal with such affectionate eyes. No wonder you can't find a girlfriend."
MacDonald's wheat-colored skin turned slightly red, "You said it as if you have a girlfriend now."
Gao Wen laughed happily, but didn't mind, "This is just the first championship. Next, there is a crazy May waiting for us. Don't you want to touch the United States Championship trophy?"
MacDonald nodded vigorously, and the light in his eyes suddenly brightened.
Gawain winked and raised his chin, "Besides, not only the team champions, but the singles champions should also fight hard!"
The NCAA National Championship is divided into men's and women's groups. In addition, each has a team championship, singles championship and doubles championship. This is also the only opportunity for players to strive for individual honors.
More importantly, the NCAA has signed a cooperation agreement with the U.S. Tennis Open, one of the four Grand Slams. Every year, the U.S. singles champion and doubles champion can receive wild cards without ranking or participating in qualifying rounds.
It is a rare opportunity to directly participate in the main draw of the US Open.
Obviously, the US Tennis Association also attaches great importance to cultivating the new generation of tennis players. In addition to professional tennis schools, it also has a lot of care for the NCAA. Not only does the US Open directly provide a wild card for men and women, but also provides a wild card for men and women before the Grand Slam.
The North American season is also willing to provide opportunities, hoping that young players can improve their strength through the opportunity to play against masters.
A wild card is worth thousands of dollars.
It is precisely because of this that the competition in the United States Championship has become increasingly fierce. The team championship is the highest honor of the season, while the singles and doubles championships can open a window for one's career.
Crazy May is what makes it so crazy.
After hearing Gawain's words, Macdonald couldn't help but get excited after just thinking about it. He grabbed Gawain's hands, and the two of them jumped up on the spot, shouting like children, but they were still slightly restrained.
, dare not shout out the wildest thoughts in your heart——
What if you really win the singles championship?
Of course, if you want to win the championship, you must first qualify to participate in the singles competition of the NCAA National Championship, and both Gao Wen and MacDonald are among them.
After a long season, the singles rankings of the Bruins players have undergone tremendous changes.
Braymer, who was once the third singles player, has dropped to 93rd in the rankings. He has no chance to participate in the singles competition. The team championship is his only chance. It is precisely because of this that today's victory is so precious and so important.
Invigorate.
MacDonald has risen steadily and is now at thirty-three.
Gawain even took a small rocket and temporarily ranked seventeenth.
If it weren't for the opponents in the second half of the season, and the average strength is relatively limited, the ranking number should be able to rise one more level, but even so, there was no ranking before the start of the spring season, and it is still shocking to rise all the way to the current height.
However, as a championship team, the Bruins have stronger players.
Geelong is currently ranked fourth.
Although Thompson's state fluctuated at the end of the season and he lost several games, his ranking rose instead of falling. He once fell to third, and now he is back to second——
It can be seen from the side that fluctuations in the status of young players are actually very common. While Thompson is experiencing ups and downs, others are also facing ups and downs. Especially at the end of the season, the test of physical strength and energy is more severe. After entering the crazy May, how will
Improving status is a common topic.
These four players are undoubtedly the core lineup for the Bruins to compete for the national championship; they have also ensured their singles qualifications and will compete for the individual championship.
In the crazy month of May, they will be on the national stage and challenge for higher honors.
"Gawain...Gawain!"
A call came to his ears, but the roar of cheers from the audience directly drowned the sound, forcing Grant to pat Gawain's shoulder heavily, and then Gawain turned his head.
"Pete is here! Are you sure you don't want to go over and say hello?"
Pete?
Gao Wen let go of MacDonald's hands, turned around, and followed Grant's line of sight. At a glance, he could see Pete Sampras, who was high-fiving the Bruins players.
Gawain looked at Grant, and then he could see the encouraging look in Grant's eyes——
Nominally, Sampras came to congratulate the Bruins on winning the championship, but in fact, Sampras has always admired the spirituality displayed by Gao Wen on the court.
Not only did they have a good chat in the locker room last time, but Sampras also mentioned Gao Wen's name when he was interviewed by the media later. It was just because the influence of the NCAA was far from enough, so "Gao Wen"
"The name did not attract more attention.
If Gao Wen can have a better performance in the following crazy May, Grant believes that more and more people will become familiar with this name.
If possible, Grant also hopes to have more contact with legendary superstars like Gauvin and Sampras, which will be beneficial to future development.
So Grant pushed Gawain and Macdonald's shoulders and encouraged them to come forward and say hello.
