Kintamayama 47,191 Posted February 11, 2004 2 new ex-college recruits have joined Mihogaseki-beya yesterday. They are both from Nichidai University, and have joined Mihogaseki because they like Hamanoshima, an ex- Nichidai rikishi himself. One is Satoyama (22, 175/113), a 4th year graduate. Prefers hidari-yotsu. He participated in last year's National Students' individual something or other(全国学生個人体重別選手権無差別級を制した) and I gather he did well. The other guy is Shiroishi (白石), 22, 173/120, fourth year as well and also a yotsu kind of person. In his second year, he got a jun-yusho in the National Student Championships(全国学生選手権) Both not on the large side, it seems.. "Our favorite rikishi is Hamanoshima. We'd like to become Sekitori as soon as we can", they said. They will be both starting from Maezumo in Haru. Please, someone who knows what he's talking about translate this stuff..

Asashosakari 20,225 Posted February 11, 2004 Satoyama on the right. Is it just me, or does Satoyama bear some resemblance to Tochiazuma? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zenjimoto 40 Posted February 11, 2004 Is it just me, or does Satoyama bear some resemblance to Tochiazuma? You're right, that's amazing: Tochiazuma has the exact same tie, too! :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kotoseiya Yuichi 3 Posted February 12, 2004 I also have a tie of that colour! And I'm more or less 113 kgs! This can't be a coincidence!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
