Basketball boy, starting to shine from the slam dunk

The college entrance examination is here.

Because Jiangning No. 1 Middle School is an examination room, in addition to the senior high school students, the first and second grade students have to have a holiday.

Taking advantage of the vacation time, Zhuang Yu and Zhou An came to Dongyuan Basketball School together.

Zhou An just came back to see his former teammates and meet Zhou Zhiming, while Zhuang Yu had serious matters to discuss with Zhou Zhiming.

"Uncle Zhou, Coach Ike."

"Uncle, coach."

The two came to Coach Ike's office. Zhou Zhiming and Coach Ike sat on the sofa and nodded to them.

Zhou Zhiming glanced at his nephew and said, "Zhou An, go find Jiao Bo'an and the others. Let's discuss something with Zhuang Yu."

Zhou An responded, turned around and went out.

But it obviously does not include Vail University and Bryant University.

Knowing that Zhuang Yu definitely didn't understand, Zhou Zhiming introduced: "Bryant University is one of the first-level colleges in the NCAA and belongs to the Northeast Conference. Of course, it has nothing to do with NBA star Kobe Bryant. It just happens to be called Bryant University."

"Their basketball team is called the Bulldogs. The team is not weak, but it is still far behind the well-known North Carolina, Duke, and Kentucky."

"As for Vail, it's an NJCAA school."

"Well, you may not know much about the American collegiate athletic associations. They include the NCAA, NAIA, and NJCAA."

Zhuang Yu was confused when he heard it. He only knew about the NCAA and really knew nothing about the NAIA and NJCAA. He didn't see it when he checked online.

Isn't it just a college athletic association, so complicated?

Zhou Zhiming explained: "You should know the NCAA, which is the largest and most influential college sports association in the United States. The NAIA is a college sports association at the same level as the NCAA, but the level of the athletes, the scale of the events, and the impact Not even as powerful as the NCAA."

"The advantage of NAIA is that it has some relatively unpopular competitive events that the NCAA does not have, such as competitive cheerleading, women's wrestling, etc., and the application review is relatively loose."

"As for the NJCAA, it is also a college sports association, but it is not as good as the NCAA in terms of level because it is the National Junior College Athletic Association. The player strength is roughly between the NCAA's second-level league and the third-level league."

"Of course, the NJCAA includes not only junior colleges, but also some community colleges."

this......

Zhuang Yu felt so confused.

What is done by CUBA in China, why is it so complicated abroad? It is the University Athletic Association, and there are two or three.

"Don't worry about the NAIA, you just need to know the NCAA and the NJCAA." Zhou Zhiming thought for a while, "Well, you can simply understand that one is the undergraduate college sports association and the other is the junior college sports association."

Zhuang Yu groaned and couldn't help complaining, isn't this a sports association? What are the divisions of junior college and undergraduate? Is this also discrimination?

Suddenly, Coach Ike said: "Actually, NJCAA schools like Vail University are a good choice. Many foreign students will choose NJCAA schools. Because their application and review thresholds are relatively low, and after completing their two-year studies, they still have to go to NJCAA schools. You can transfer to a four-year undergraduate university, which is a good springboard for many foreign students.”

Zhuang Yu and Zhou Zhiming were talking in Chinese just now. Coach Ike could only understand simple "hello" and "thank you", but not other words.

But when he heard Zhou Zhiming mention the NJCAA, he guessed what the two were talking about.

Zhou Zhiming nodded to Coach Ike, and then said to Zhuang Yu: "Coach Ike hopes that you can go to Vail University. Firstly, it is easier to apply to NJCAA colleges, and secondly, the head coach of Vail University is a friend of Coach Ike, so you can Give you some care."

Who says foreign countries are not polite?

In fact, it is said everywhere in the world, and it is the same in the United States. After all, people have closeness and distance, and it is the same no matter where they are.

After listening, Zhuang Yu summarized.

In other words, his next possible destinations are two high schools and two universities. However, from what Zhou Zhiming and Coach Ike said, it seems that they would prefer him to go to a university and play in the NCAA instead of the NSAA (U.S. High School).
