After MacDonald scored the last point, his knees weakened and he collapsed directly to the ground, exhausted. But in the end, he successfully avenged Froome and gritted his teeth to score the most critical and most difficult point for the Bruins. With his own
The indomitable spirit pushed the Trojans to the edge of the cliff.
"Up! Brown bear! Up!"
Gawain was the first to jump up high, raise his arms and shout, roaring at the top of his lungs, pushing the noise of the audience to the extreme, calling on all fans to unite as one.
"Up! Brown bear! Up!"
The air is burning.
Because of Gawain's strong performance and McDonald's tenacious fight, the morale of UCLA reached an incredible height.
The Bruins fans in the audience gave out earth-shattering cheers, suppressing the Trojans' roar on the edge of the cliff. The match between Mars and the Earth also came to another critical juncture. Under the spotlight, the second singles of both sides appeared hand in hand.
"Thompson vs Hanfman".
In this game, no one can predict the outcome. The collision of two powerful players is a real 50-50, and the victory or defeat may be just a matter of millimeters.
On one side, they are full of momentum and pursue victory; on the other side, they are desperate and fighting against the odds.
Moreover, for the two players Thompson and Hanfman, the game is also of extraordinary significance.
In the Bruins, Thompson has been the number one singles player this season, but towards the end of the season, his status fluctuated greatly, and he was gradually replaced by Gawain, and even Giron also stepped down.
Although Thompson is neither jealous nor hating Gao Wen, on the contrary, he is inspired by Gao Wen's fighting spirit; but deep down, he is still a little disappointed. He originally hoped that he could become the spiritual leader of the team and lead the Bruins to the top.
He won the championship, but now he has no way to see it.
However, Thompson still hopes to prove himself and become an important part of the team's road to championship.
The Hanfman of the Trojans has a different taste.
Saramento's request for help allowed them to change their opponents. Otherwise, it would most likely be "Hanfman vs. Gowan" or "Saramento vs. Thompson."
Although Salamento lost the game, they did not give up throughout the game, and their high-spirited spirit continued to impact Hanfman.
Maybe, he couldn't imagine whether he could turn the tide of the battle against Gawain; but at least, he knew that he should fight to the end like Salamento, and he could never let down Salamento. Defeating Thompson was his proof of himself.
the only way.
Whether Thompson or Hanfman, they all have reasons why they cannot lose. They fight for themselves and the team.
The collision of this game was indeed a brilliant one. The back-and-forth competition between the two sides was very close and fierce. They refused to give in and the stalemate situation continued from the first point to the last point.
The first set entered the tiebreaker, and Thompson narrowly won with a score of "15:13".
In the second set, there was another tiebreaker. Hanfman saved four match points and Thompson also saved three set points. Then the two sides struggled again until "12:11", and Thompson got the fifth match point.
The whole audience held their breath, and the air was almost stagnant.
You can even hear the beating of your heart, and then Thompson serves.
Throw the ball! Bend your knees! Kick the ground! Swing your arms!
I have done countless serving movements in my daily life. When my legs have almost no strength, I barely push on the ground, pouring the power of my entire upper body into it, and swing it at high speed.
boom!
The tennis ball drew a thrilling trajectory, like a long sword unsheathed, and landed exactly on the T-point of the inner corner.
ace?
Is it really an ace?
…
Kick off the ground! Turn! Serve!
Hanfman stared intently at Thompson's serve and made preparations.
However, the calf muscles really had no strength and he couldn't push out at all. The whole audience was exerting all their strength, so he couldn't throw his body out. He barely took two steps and waved the racket, but he couldn't touch the tennis ball.
.
Before his eyes, he could see the mustard yellow light and shadow flying, like the golden snitch in a Quidditch game, spreading its wings and then disappearing.
He just stared longingly at the direction where the light and shadow disappeared.
ace?
Yes, ace!
"Game, Thompson."
"Game, Bruins."
Winning, Thompson ended the game with an ace and ended all competition for the U.S. Championship!
The championship trophy is settled!
Hanfman staggered twice and almost fell down. He controlled his body before stumbling to the ground and avoided the fate of throwing himself directly into the street. However, all the strength in his body was still drained out at once, and his shoulders drooped in embarrassment and frustration.
, looking down at the dark blue court beneath his feet.
There was a look of confusion in his eyes, and his mouth was full of bitterness.
What...what's going on?
They tried their best and made no reservations, but the Bruins in the finals were completely unstoppable. They completely controlled the situation with a sweeping attitude. The Trojans could not even win a single victory. From doubles to singles, everything was destroyed.
Big score, "4:0".
It was a one-sided game. If they didn't watch the game but just watched the score, the audience would not be able to believe that this was a showdown between the No. 1 seed and the No. 2 seed, and it was also a Los Angeles derby showdown?
Actually!
Such a disparity!
It's over, just like that... it's over?
That deep sense of powerlessness, pulling at the ankle and slowly falling, like drowning, breathless, but unable to struggle.
Hanfman felt lonely. He raised his head slightly and looked to the other side of the court. The Bruins had gone crazy. There was a hint of envy in his eyes.
Youth, blooming wantonly under the sunset.
boom!
Boom boom boom!
When Thompson fired the ace ball, Gawain's brain was instantly filled with happiness and excitement, which was too overwhelming to think.
ah!
Ahhhh!
The scream broke through his throat, he raised his hands high and rushed into the court. Thompson was surrounded by bustling figures in the blink of an eye.
Won.
This was the only thought in Gao Wen's mind. The Bruins really defeated the Trojans, changed the trajectory of history, and became the champion of May Madness!
champion.
Just repeating this word silently in my mind makes me want to laugh.
Six months ago, he returned to his teenage years and started chasing his tennis dream again, taking steps over and over again.
Six months later, he changed his destiny and wrote a new history. Everything was so beautiful and happy that it was unreal.
Looking up, you can see the crowd surging throughout the stadium. The Bruins fans have gone crazy, screaming, cheering and jumping irrationally——
After exactly ten years, the Bruins men's team once again brought the national championship trophy back to UCLA.
After twenty-four years, the same university once again won the NCAA men's and women's team championships in the National Championships. UCLA truly made history.
So brilliant and so magical!
They left their own mark in the history of the NCAA.
