Day 9 lower division results

[Doitsuyama]

Lead makushita Sadanofuji avoided the early make-koshi at the cost of young Takayasu while the other lead makushita Tsurugidake slapped Satsumahibiki down to move within one win of a juryo debut at 31 years. Mongolian Shironoryu had a zubuneri win against Chinese Nakanokuni and is kachi-koshi already. There is aAnother kachi-koshi at Ms4 as Tochinowaka had a yoritaoshi win over Fukao. Czech Takanoyama on the other hand won't move up as he fell to make-koshi against Masunoyama, and Takarafuji won to round up the juryo promotion zone action.

Then we have seemingly ageless Jumonji mounting another comeback as he beat Fujiazuma to become the highest ranked makushita yusho leader. With Satoyama another experienced ex-sekitori is next in rank at 5-0 with the win over Mochimaru. While these two have a combined 68 sekitori basho, the other two makushita rikishi at 5-0 have an added 16 basho in makushita and they aren't exactly sekitori prospects with 31 years old Gorikiyama and 25 years old Araumago. If you want to see positive news from the talents, there are early kachi-koshi from Tochiyashiki and Karatsuumi in low makushita.

The 20 years old Taka-twins had different results in high sandanme today as Takageppo lost to 19 years old Kumagai (who is in Ozumo for three years longer than the Takas), while Takatoshi won against resident heavy-weight Orora. 20 years old Kyokutaisei actually is the oldest of the sandanme yusho leaders with 17 years old Akinokawa and 19 years old Kotokensei also at 5-0. Following this trend, the last sandanme rikishi at 5-0 should be 19 years old Kotokobai who fights 33 years old Shinnishiki tomorrow.

The most remarkable of the undefeated jonidan rikishi isn't a serious sekitori prospects, but famous jonidan lifer Amanowaka from Tamanoi-beya who is 5-0 with a win over 16 years old Takaakita. With a 7-0 he would of course break his 42 basho streak in jonidan, but there still is a long way to go as those two wins won't come that easy to him.

The two rikishi at 5-0 in jonokuchi are 16 years old Tamaseiryo (who fell down due to a 0-0-7 last basho) and Mongolian Aratoshi who is returning after missing the last seven basho.

Oh oh Takanoyama 1-4....... (I am not worthy...)

[Peterao]

Ms57w  Araumago (5-0)	  yorikiri	   Sd10e  Kasugaryu (4-1)

Araumago is the former Kamakura, the original "adopted rikishi" from 2001. Prior to this basho, his lifetime Makushita record was 3-11, and he had fallen down to Jonidan as recently as last year. Now, he's all but assured to reach his new all-time high rank next basho.

Like the bad adoptive father that I am, I have totally neglected the guy since long before his most recent shikona change. But I hope I make up for many years of neglect by saying "Good job, son!"

Jd1e   Chiyoraizan (3-2)   fusen		  Sd98e  Tosa (2-3)

Random discovery and just my personal guessing, but maybe Tosa couldn't appear for his 5th match because of too many birthday toasts yesterday. (I am not worthy...)

Hopefully he didn't pull a Nishikido (Sad goodbyes...)

Ms4e Shironoryu (4-1) zubuneri Ms2w Nakanokuni (3-2)

Well done Shironoryu!!!!!! (I am not worthy...)

Now 2 more wins for either Shironoryu and Nakanokuni and I'm more than happy (Sad goodbyes...) .

[Pippooshu]

Oh oh Takanoyama 1-4....... (Applauding...)

What a pity! For every step grown up, Takanoyama falls down the tournment after! He don't become Sekitori...never!
