Chapter 220 Bright Future 6 (1/2)
Jake had scored 10 points in that period and had also made 4 assists and got a rebound, so Jake was now 14 points and 9 assists and 3 rebounds, the trained Mike who was worried about Jake thought he was doing very well so far.
But I couldn't tell if Jake thought he was playing badly because his standard is too high, at least he was playing a lot better than in the last state championship game, it was better for Coach Mike if Jake was healed, because otherwise, it would be hard for them to win the national championship without it.
Jake who had forgotten his problems had also played well in the third period and the Elite team increased the advantage even further, by the end of the first game the Elite team had won the game by 30 points.
Jake had 38 points and 15 assists plus 5 rebounds, Lucas also had a good game and Harrison didn't even get into the game, David had a modest game and was replaced by Nathan in the fourth period.
Coach Mike was very happy with the outcome of the game and figured that even if Jake had a problem before he should have healed after seeing him play so well today, so Jake picked up his things and left after saying goodbye to his teammates.
After arriving home Jake took a shower and rested and just got up when his mother came home and told her that they had won the game again, Eva was happy with it and made a special celebration dinner for Jake.
After working in a restaurant for several months, Eva had improved her cooking a lot, but what she improved, even more, was the speed at which she prepared the food, she just had to wait for the fire, because her cooking skills made her finish the dishes quickly.
This was normal considering she saw the same dishes being made hundreds of times and even observed the chefs 'techniques for preparing the fastest dishes, as Anna had said, years of experience only improve chefs' skills.
Even now that Jake could cook better than his mother, he was much slower than she was to prepare the dishes, but that only made Jake happy to see Eva cooking so well.
At school during the week the tension was increasing as the last semester progressed, Jake was the most relaxed about it because he had high scores on both ACT and SAT tests, and Jake already had a university scholarship guaranteed.
Joseph had also gotten a very high score, but he wanted to get even better before entering college, with Jake teaching when he had time all of Jake's classmates had gotten good grades.
The teachers now loved Jake and could not even believe how some teachers in the past might not like him, after all, they earned great bonuses from the Elite school on the higher their students' grades.
Jake even found time to teach some players on his basketball team and some close friends he had made on the football team, everyone who studied with Jake got great scores.
But that was because no one who could get into a private school could be stupid, besides, the classes were always good no matter which teachers gave the classes, Jake had gotten a good grade even on the GMAT he did.
Even if it wasn't for the sports scholarship Jake could easily get into any university, Jake had also overcome his fear of another accident and could no longer walk, now he was convinced that his future would be great.
Jake was in such a good mood that he even helped Liza with her studies, Joseph was smart, but unlike Jake, he was terrible at teaching and couldn't help his girlfriend.
In his last semester of high school even Lola came to talk to Jake, she offered to teach him how to do well on exams, he thanked him and said he didn't need to be the best student in his class.
He was grateful and didn't want Lola to waste her time, and Lola ended up being embarrassed and embarrassed for it, Lola had to blame Eva who always bragged about everything Jake did and forgot to say that he was the best student of the school.
This week Jake was a little tense too because on Saturday this week would be the qualifying event for the Olympics, so he had to train well during the week, he still ran the 55 km with a speed of 30 minutes for every 10 km.
Jake wanted to make sure he could handle the entire race at his normal speed that would win the marathon, the second game of the Elite national championship would be on Friday, so he would have to go to Charlotte, NC where he would be the night of classification.
This time he didn't want anyone to go with him there, so John wasn't happy anymore but he understood that Jake needed focus right now to try to win, there would also be a $ 100,000 prize for the first place Jake wanted to win.
Tiffany had said he had not found any suitable coach for Jake, so Jake said he didn't want any now until the Olympics were over so he could get a better coach and a coach now could hurt his training.
