Capítulo 89: Rising to the Challenge

The tension in the air was palpable as both teams lined up for the extra point. Shinkai High's players, buoyed by their recent touchdown, moved with a confident swagger. Lucas, in particular, exuded a calm assuredness as he positioned himself to receive the ball. His eyes locked onto Sota's, a silent challenge passing between them.

Sota's heart pounded in his chest, adrenaline coursing through his veins. He knew how crucial this moment was. Shinkai High was about to widen the gap, and Sota wasn't about to let that happen. He focused on Lucas, studying his movements, waiting for the perfect moment.

The whistle blew, and the snap was clean, quick, and precise. The quarterback's arm shot forward, sending the ball spiraling through the air toward Lucas. Time seemed to slow as the ball arced perfectly, heading straight for Lucas's waiting hands.
