I revived the Demonic Sect in North America
Chapter 98 Star Quarterback
The whistle for the transition between offense and defense was sharp and piercing, like a thorny whip, striking the hearts of every River Valley High School fan.
The Cavaliers' offensive players, who were the first to be hit, looked utterly dejected.
I have no face to see the elders of Jiangdong in the stands again.
Disappointment and frustration lingered in everyone's hearts.
These people were like a group of defeated roosters, heads hanging low, walking unsteadily to the sidelines.
Meanwhile, as the commentator's passionate voice rang out, Fordham Prep High School's attacking team, led by their Latino captain Marcus, stepped onto the green field with an almost leisurely gait.
Their bright red team uniforms shone brightly under the spotlight, dazzlingly bright.
Silently proclaiming their confidence and strength to the Cavaliers' home arena.
At this moment, the commentators are enthusiastically emphasizing the strength of this Latino captain.
Marcus Rodriguez.
Fordham Prep High School's star quarterback.
This year, like the Cavaliers' captain Jack, he is a senior in high school.
But the difference is that he was already the team leader last year when he was a senior in high school.
He once led his team to the state semifinals and was nominated for the New York State All-High School Team.
He is about six feet two inches tall (approximately 188 cm).
His physique is typical of a technically skilled quarterback.
He wasn't particularly muscular, but his muscles were well-defined and he moved with agility.
He is best known for his calm mind, accurate short and medium-range passes, and ability to read the defense in crucial moments.
At that moment, Marcus was chatting casually with the close-range forward next to him, a faint smile playing on his lips.
He even waved to the area in the stands where the Pastors' fans were gathered, drawing cheers from them.
The scene resembled a small party being held on the lawn in one's own backyard.
Greet the guests with ease and confidence.
They were completely unaware that they were playing away from home and were about to face a tough match.
His nonchalance and arrogance instantly ignited the anger of the Cavaliers fans in the stands.
Discontented roars rose and fell:
"Damn it! What's this kid so arrogant about? Just wait and see, the defense team will beat him to a pulp!"
"Exactly! A lowly Latino dares to act tough in our River Valley community?"
On the Cavaliers' side, apart from Bruce, all the other offensive players had already left the court to rest due to exhaustion.
Bruce remained on the field alone.
His forehead was covered with large beads of sweat, which slid down his angular face.
He grabbed a towel and rubbed his face hard, then tilted his head back and gulped down a mouthful of water. He took a deep breath, his eyes sharpened again, and he was ready to go back into battle.
From the stands, Liu Yue pointed to the field in surprise and said:
"Why is Bruce up there again?"
Her voice was filled with confusion and worry.
The older white man in the River Valley High School jacket, with a cigarette dangling from his lips and a frown, explained:
"You mean that big black guy? That kid's a combo forward, the defense needs to step up too."
"Uncle, what is a 'twin striker'?"
"He plays the forward position on both ends of the court, center on offense and defensive tackle on defense. This kid is a beast, born for this!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Yue's expression changed immediately; she hadn't expected the other person to use the word "livestock."
Unlike the shy and reserved girl from Dongda University, Liu Yue retorted without hesitation:
"Hey! Old man, who are you calling an animal?!"
The veteran fan paused for a moment, then chuckled and explained:
"Hey kid, I'm praising him! The center position is the most tiring job on both offense and defense, requiring an extremely high level of physical fitness. People like him are rare; to be able to endure this level of competition is truly impressive, like an animal!"
Liu Yue suddenly realized what was happening, a blush crept across her face, and she awkwardly stuck out her tongue, whispering:
"I'm sorry, I misunderstood."
The veteran fan laughed heartily:
"Haha, it's nothing, it's nothing. This kid is really good. I've been watching games for years, and I've never seen a combo forward perform like this at the high school level. I heard he's only a sophomore and just joined the team; he's a real talent. It's a pity his teammates are so weak. I wonder if River Valley High School can even make the New York State playoffs this year."
Li Ang listened silently, his heart filled with mixed emotions.
It was obvious that his dear friend had never slacked off, but had been constantly improving and never stopped.
The focus has returned to the field.
The Priests' offense lined up neatly at their 35-yard line, with Marcus standing behind the center, calmly observing the Cavaliers' defensive setup.
He hadn't yet noticed that in the center of the Cavaliers' defensive line, a cunning defensive tackle was staring intently at him.
The referee's loud voice rang out quickly:
"First tier, starting with the 35-yard line!"
Marcus shouted out the tactical instructions without hesitation:
Plan A!
"Ready, set, kick off!"
The center forward kicks off.
After receiving the ball, Marcus used a quick feint to get past the defender.
He then took a step back, his gaze sweeping sharply to his right, making a realistic gesture as if he were looking at the right outside receiver.
Several Cavaliers defensive players immediately rushed toward the location Marcus was pointing to.
However, this was just a feint by Marcus.
After using his vision to fool several opponents, he suddenly turned around and cleverly passed the ball to the running back who quickly cut in from behind him.
This is a standard reading option running ball tactic.
It tests the teamwork and coordination between the quarterback and the running back.
The stadium's loudspeakers immediately crackled with the rousing voice of a commentator:
"Beautiful feint! Marcus Rodriguez!"
"Look at this read! He completely fooled the Cavaliers' linebacker! Yes, this handsome Latino guy easily diverted the defense's attention to the right with just a glance, then casually passed the ball to the running back behind him!"
"Guys, that's the vision and deception of a top-class quarterback! Clean, efficient, and a feast for the eyes! Even though he's the visiting team from afar, let's give him a round of applause!"
Today's commentator is Kenny Douglas, a sports anchor from WBRX radio in the Bronx, who was specially invited by River Valley High School.
This broadcaster is well-known in the Bronx for his passionate commentary and occasional sharp remarks.
Today is the first time he has been invited to commentate on a home game at River Valley High School.
Logically speaking, he had accepted money from Hegu High School after all.
There should be some bias towards the home team.
But the Cavaliers' boring offense in the first half and the Priests' almost suffocating systemic dominance on defense left a deep impression on him.
As a straightforward commentator, his style is to tell the truth.
Even if the priests are the away team.
But they're just that strong.
I just want to brag.
Therefore, Kenny's balance tipped unknowingly.
Seeing Marcus effortlessly initiate this attack, he couldn't help but praise him again:
"Look at their perfect teamwork! The running back's timing is impeccable! The Priests' offense, from the very beginning, exudes a well-trained composure!"
