Chapter 358 College Basketball Season Begins 2 (1/2)

After the game was over everyone celebrated and Jake also celebrated after returning to his dorm with his friends, Jake also called his mother who said she watched the game and was very happy.

After that first win, Jake could feel that the mood at the Tar Heels team training was much better, the players were still nervous about Coach Dean Smith leaving, and they were worried about what it would be like to play with Coach Bill Guthridge leading the team.

But after this first win the players realized that everything was as it was before, Jake thought that if the team continued to win the players would be more comfortable and play even better.

After this first game, the very competent coach Guthridge realized the mistakes the team made with the lack of a player in the Center position and used the next few days of training to correct it.

One good thing that everyone noticed in this game was that the physical condition of the Tar Heels team players was very good, not many teams would have the players so well prepared for the new season.

By those days Jake and his roommates were already adjusting to the university routine again, Jake was very happy because it looked like Aaron had been able to join the football team again.

Unlike basketball, the College football season started in August and ended in December, so Aaron could just start playing for the team and officially enter next season.

Even though Jake was happy for his friend who could still play third and fourth year on the university football team, Jake had heard that Aaron was really very talented in football and just before the start of season one he got hurt which annoyed the university that took his sports bag.

But Aaron's dedication to fully recovering from his injury and continuing to college even without his sports scholarship and still being able to recover his best condition in a year left the team coach moved and so he sent Aaron back to the team.

Now Aaron would keep striving and training alone until the team resumed normal training after this season was over, he couldn't go back to training now because the season was almost over and that could affect the rest of the team in some way.

This made Jake very happy for his friend who might now have an opportunity perhaps someday to play in the NFL by playing two seasons on the college football team, of course, Jake knew this was very difficult to happen, but it was possible.

William was also struggling hard in class, and in the past two semesters he had good grades with Jake's help and his effort, Jake believed that if William kept striving this way and had opportunities he could make a lot of money working on stocks.

Jake just thought it was a pity that William had no interest in working in companies, otherwise Jake would even give him an opportunity, after all, Jake didn't need anyone to work on stocks with him, after all, he only invested when he knew the stock could have an excellent result.

Who Jake was betting for after college was Haruto he met at a lecture late last semester, Haruto was very smart and hardworking and was looking for a job after finishing college.

Besides, he was a big fan of Jake because he is a basketball player and also working as an actor, so Jake hoped he could work with Haruto after college.

They also became more friends and even went out to dinner sometimes when Jake couldn't be with his roommates, Haruto was studying a course related to Jake's and was in a year longer at university.

Zack still continued training with Jake every day and now had more calm and confidence to do the daily training, he ran 25 km every day and would continue to do so until again to the 30 km every day.

He was happy too because women were more interested in himself than Zack being very handsome after he got in great shape by running so much with Jake, so all was well with all of Jake's friends at the university.

Jake also continued his alternating training on one day running the 50 km at the fastest pace he was used to and on another day running the 10,000 meters 3 times with a time that was comfortable for Jake.

Coach Davis knew that Jake was able to improve his running pace in these two workouts, but he was concerned that Jake's body would not be able to withstand a more intense training routine.

Coach Davis did not know that Jake had a system-enhanced body and thought it was unnecessary to force more on training since Jake was already able to easily win marathons today and was not even competing in the 10,000 meters.
