章 80: A Save In Inches

The tension in the air was palpable as Daikyo High lined up for what could be the final drive of the game.

Their eyes were locked onto Seiryuu High's defense, each player poised like a predator ready to pounce on its prey. The scoreboard read 32-32, and with just under a minute left on the clock, everyone knew this play would decide everything.

Kenshiro stood behind the center, his eyes scanning the field, reading the defensive setup like a well-worn playbook. He knew they needed to strike fast, avoid any mistakes, and prevent the game from slipping into overtime.

Whooo! The crowd's energy was electric, a mix of anticipation and dread, as Daikyo High's quarterback prepared to take the snap.

"Set… hut!" Kenshiro's voice boomed, sharp and commanding.

The ball was snapped flawlessly, gliding into Kenshiro's hands like a well-rehearsed move. He quickly surveyed the field, eyes darting to the receivers breaking out from their routes.
