Chapter 169 The Last Year of High School 4

While Jake was training every day his school friends were studying, even his teammates who had to train on their vacations the new style of play took a few days to study anyway, even the school could not give a scholarship at the university if their grades were too high bad.

When Jake learned that his teammates were training in school for the new type of game he volunteered to train with them so the team could be more involved.

After all, even though Jake did not need to do that as a captain, he needed to set the example for his teammates on how to do it, his teammates, as well as Coach Mike, hoped to easily accept training.

After all, they knew it was because of them that the style of play had to be changed, Jake had no problem with these individual moves, on the contrary, Jake was much better at these 1-on-1 shots.

After a day of training on the court coach Mike called Jake to talk privately, Jake did not know what was agreed more easily, his teammates thought it was just Jake who would quietly go to the coach's office without any fear.

"I was very happy that you have set aside your vacation to train here with the team, I know that you have even trained after here on the athletic field every day, it was really the right decision to have you as team captain, you give a great example Jake."

"I'm also part of the team and it's normal for me to train with all of them."

"That's right, I called you here Jake because even though this school tries to stop them all with you it's impossible, we've got several calls from various scouts from various universities."

"As an MVP last year in the national championship you have been the number one choice of almost all coaches who need a PG or SG in the team, so soon you would probably receive several invitations from universities across the country."

Jake was happy to know that it was his mother's dream that he should enter college, and he had decided to go to college, after all, after entering the NBA he would have to concentrate entirely on basketball.

And even then maybe he could not play much in the early years if he came into the NBA now, after college he would be sure he would be a lot better in basketball, but Jake found it a bit odd that Coach Mike would get several college invitations.

As if he had realized Jake was confused, Coach Mike explained everything that was going on.

"Actually your case was really special, normally the scouts and coaches of college teams start talking to the players in the first or second year, and in the third and fourth years they make the offers."

"In his first year in high school, several scouts and coaches of college teams were already watching you, after all, you had been the champion and MVP teams in the national middle school championship."

"But they spoke to the Philips coach who spoke very badly of you and said that you would be out of the team all through high school so they all lost interest in you."

"So all these recruiters were eyeing other high school players in those first two years, it was only in the third year that you started playing that they remembered you."

"But these recruiters paid no attention to our team in the regional championship nor to the state championship in normal games."

"It was only in the national championship that they started paying attention to our team, but even watching you play so well they had no interest in you what coach Philips talked about you at the time."

"But they were very interested in Mark and then in other players of our team, with the passing of the games our team has always been winning and you have always been being the highlight of the team and eliminating several players they were watching."

"It was after our team won the national championship and you were the MVP with a triple-double that they realized that the information that the Philips coach passed was fake and you were a great player."

"But at that time all the coaches and scouts of the university teams also knew about you, so everyone talked to me and I gave you a good evaluation."

"The school wanted to hold so that the colleges that we have partnerships could talk to you before, but it did not give more time, but it's impossible for everyone to talk to you before and so everyone has already made proposals with full scholarships for you."

"Even more when they learned that you had the best grades in one of the schools with one of the best teachers in the country, so you only have to call the coaches from the universities you have the most interest and choose a good one."

Jake even found that his situation was very different from the other basketball players, after all, he had not been called by any recruiter before and now he was called by everyone, but it was good because he could choose the universities.

He wanted to pick the ones he remembered that they had the best teams they could beat that he saw in his past life, so he would be on a winning team so he could also choose a team that had a weaker PG and was strong overall.

But he would leave to think about it later, he said goodbye to the coach and returned to training, after training he went home, he wanted to tell his mother the good news, but she was in the restaurant and he was tired of the various training to wait for today.

So he decided he would tell when he chose a university, he could not talk to these trainers now either because he still had to run a marathon so his plan worked out right.

After a few months of training the Elite team was doing well with the new style of training, coach Mike thought it would be much harder for the team to change the playing style, but with Jake joining the training on vacation all It worked.

Now it was only a few days before the beginning of the last year of school, everyone was still very worried about the grades, after all, if they could have a good university or did not depend on grades.

Jake was the coolest with it all, he trained every day he could in the school training camp, after a few more months of training it was already very easy for him to do the 50 km in 200 minutes but he did not try to increase the training load.

It was because he could not get too tired of this as he still had training for the basketball team, even though they had improved a lot since last year and even had new plays and tactics beyond the new style of the game.

They still had to train a lot for the regional championship that would be in a month, this was because the two new players who were the middle school stars would join the team, they had to train to be good reserves for the team.

Jake asked to leave the training in these last days of vacations because he wanted to see how was the restaurant of Eva and see if it could help in something.

Eva had already grown accustomed to the restaurant routine and was less tired now, she was happy every day and was already starting to do her job better as a chef.

Anna was also very happy these last few months, she could not even believe how she managed to get away from the environment she loved so much a few years ago, fortunately, she had Jake who brought her back to this life.

She did not even remember that she said she would only help for a few months until Eva got used to the job and then left, Anna now wanted to work at this restaurant until the end of her life.

Jake was also very happy that everything was going well with his mother, but he was a little sad because it was getting harder to meet his mother at home in the last few months, at first whenever he was not tired he waited until Eva Come back for dinner and talk.

But after a few weeks, he realized that Eva always arrived tired at home and still had to stay at least 30 minutes to have dinner and talk and have dinner with Jake before taking a shower and sleeping.

So thinking of his mother, Jake suggested that Eve dine in the restaurant and even set up a bathroom there so she and the staff could bathe there and get the home ready for bed.

Eva denied the idea of ​​the bathroom, but accepted that it was better to have dinner in the restaurant, so they were hardly in the house anymore, Jake would sometimes go to the restaurant, but it was difficult for him to go often.

And Jake still had not bought a car for him and Eva always used the car, so Jake had to go to the restaurant by a car when he wanted to go.

Jake was thinking about buying a car for him, but he wanted to save money to invest in more stock in a few months, but it seemed that having a car was important to him if Jake wanted to go somewhere in the future.

When Jake arrived at the restaurant Lola was the one who received it again, she was very happy to see Jake again, after all, he could not come often in the restaurant and even when he came sometimes Lola was busy working and could not talk to him.

"Hi Lola, how are you?"

"Very well thank you, we've had a lot of work these past few months, have you come to see your mother?"

"Yes, I also came to see you and the others were just starting my classes last year and with so many things I have to do I will not be able to come here many times."

"That's a shame."

"What is a shame?"
