Now the practice match between Shohoku Boys Team and Ryonan Boys Team were about to start.

STARTERS:

F #11 Kaede Rukawa (SHO) # 7 Akira Sendoh (RYO)

F# 5 Kimenobu Kogure (SHO) # 5 Ryouji Ikegami (RYO)

C# 4 Takenori Akagi (SHO) # 4 Jun Uozumi (RYO)

G# 6 Yasuharu Yasuda (SHO) # 8 Tomoyuki Uoeksa (RYO)

G# 8 Tetsushi Shiozaki (SHO) # 6 Hiroaki Koshino (RYO)

The jumpball starts as Takenori Akagi and Jun Uozumi jumped into the air. But Uozumi won the jumpball.

" Takenori isn't ready for this." Ayako said.

" Team! Just to make sure we have 30 point deficit or more." Coach Taoka said.

Uoeksa passed the ball to Sendoh and shoots a three point shot and scores.

SHOHOKU 0 RYONAN 3

" What a 3-point shot Sendoh!" Hikoichi said.

Then Uoeksa stole the ball from Yasuda and passed the ba to Kushino and makes a layup.

SHOHOKU 0 RYONAN 5

" Shohoku Boys team doesn't stand a chance because Ryonan boys' guards are more versatile than Shohoku Boys' guards." Narida Matsukado (Ryonan#5) said.

" Despite Shohoku Boys weakness is they don't have enough tall reserve players." Ryoko Iwasaki said. " With the exception of that guy with red hair. I've seen him playing basketball somewhere in middle school in Hiroshima."

" So that guy with red hair is no ordinary bench player." Narida Matsukado (Ryonan#5) said.

Uoeksa made another steal and passed the ball to Uozumi and throws a 2-handed dunk.

SHOHOKU 0 RYONAN 7

" Shohoku! Come and get us!" Jun Uozumi said.

Now Yasuda brings the ball and passed the ball to Akagi and tries to make a jumpshot but Uozumi blocked his shot, Rukawa gets a rebound and tries to make a jumpshot.

" Oh no you don't." Jun Uozumi said.

Uozumi blocked Rukawa's shot.


The Shohoku Ladies Team aren't impressed.

" Oh no. That center is a shot blocker." Kimi Akagi (Shohoku#10) said.

" Looks like Ryonan Boys Team are harder opponents. They're not like Kainan and Shoyo." Naomi Yazawa (Shohoku#4) said.

" But Kainan and Shoyo are still Kanagawa's fan favorite." Kimi Akagi (Shohoku#10).

" Excuse me." Hanamichi Sakuragi (Shohoku#10) said. " Can I have your phone numbers ladies."

* BOINK!*

" Get back on the bench red monkey." Takenori Akagi (Shohoku#4) said.

It took seven minutes for Ryonan Boys Team to outscored Shohoku Boys Team.

SHOHOKU 3 RYONAN 35

" Down by 32 points." Kimi Akagi (Shohoku#10) said. " Oh great."

" This is getting chaos for Shohoku Boys Team." Naomi Yazawa (Shohoku#4) said. " It looks like Akira Sendoh is the one who rallied his team to strengthened both the defense and offense."

" That's great team!" Coach Taoka said. " Keep it up."

Hanamichi is behind Coach Taoka.

" Oh no." Ryoko Iwasaki (Ryonan#7) said. " What is that redhead doing behind Coach Taoka?"
