Postgame Exchange

While the captains of the two teams chatted, the others also paired off and exchanged a few words.

As one of his friends, Enjou found Seidou's little social butterfly, Sendou.

"Honestly!

I'm really speechless with you!!

But this time, we won!" After shaking hands, Enjou said with a smile.

"Yeah! Congratulations!!" Sendou nodded with a smile.

"The next time we meet will probably be in summer!!

To be honest, I really don't want to play against you anymore!!" Enjou complained.

"Are you cursing me to fail in the summer tournament?!" Sendou teased.

"How could I?!"

"Still, the Regional Preliminaries!!!

There really are quite a few troublesome teams there!!" Sendou thought of a certain white-haired guy who came looking for him whenever he had nothing better to do.

"That's true!

Yakushi High School is a very strong team too!!

I watched your game against Inajitsu last summer. All I could say was, they truly deserved to be West Tokyo's former number-one powerhouse!

And then there's Ichidai San High, who made the quarterfinals last spring. I heard they've got a really strong ace now too!!!" Hearing Sendou say that, Enjou spoke up as well.

In order to study Seidou, they had watched quite a few of Seidou's games.

And Seidou's game against Inajitsu last summer was probably a must-watch for any team that might face Seidou at Koshien when analyzing them!

"Former?" Sendou asked in confusion.

"You won the national championship. Aren't they the former top team now?" Enjou said with a smile.

"Strictly speaking, Inajitsu's overall strength is greater than ours!!" Sendou nodded.

"Seriously?!"

"Of course!

If your team had faced them at Spring Koshien this year,

it probably would have been even tougher!

Their ace and batting lineup are both strong and stable!!

They wouldn't have an unstable start!

That
