–What are your plans for assigning players to Ward 1 (Shunsuke Kuwata, 1st year) and Ward 5 (Kosuke Shimako, 2nd year)?
“He (Kuwata) is a player you can’t miss, so I put him in ward 1 with full confidence. For Shimako, this will be her first time running in a relay race, and this will be her first time grade section (second year) which he will run in the three major relay races He has been training steadily since the summer, breaking his personal record in the 5000m twice in July and September, and has overcome all the intense training at Komazawa, so I. we have high hopes for this time. We are confident that we will be able to meet those expectations.”
– You said that Takuma Yamakawa (3rd year) wanted to beat Kuroda (3rd year at Asahi, Aoyama Gakuin University).
“I think he’s a player with so much strength, so I put him so that he could eventually compete in the second ward (the Hakone Ekiden) or something like that, so I was expecting a similar race this time too. .”
It is said to be “Izumo’s reversal”, but as anchor player Shinohara (Kotaro, 4th year, captain), how many seconds do you think he will be behind the leader?
“He said 30 seconds. He said, “You can turn things around in 30 seconds.”
