I was wondering when 全県大会 was, and maybe to see how my old students did. I couldn't find the dates (maybe it's too early), but I did see the news stories about the high school baseball tournaments. I was a bit sad to see that Yokote Jonan lost their first game and was eliminated from the tournament. I couldn't help but smile as my memories of my baseball boys came flooding back. Especially the ones who had gone to Jonan, so that they could start their own baseball club (Jonan was an all girls school until 2 years ago). I used to watch them training until they couldn't see the ball anymore from my tennis court, and wondered which shadow was one of my old students.
Then I saw that Seriyo had won and Yokote had a bye into the next round. Which made me start wondering about another group of boys. For at least 2 of them, this would be their last summer tournament before they graduate from high school...One of them was an amazing player in JHS, and got into that school because of his baseball (he was pretty smart too). 大丈夫、かな。。。And I guess I miss watching their games...
