[Until the semi-finals]
Hiomasa Ota receives a “Ippon” collar from Tsuyoshi Ojitani
A fiercely competitive tournament filled with strong competitors that could easily be mistaken for the All Japan Championship.Among them, the 1st seeded one made it to the finals.Hiomasa Ota (Asahi Kasei)andKanta Nakano (Asahi Kasei)。
Otaappeared from the second round. First of all, when he faced Yuma Kasahara (second year Kokushikan University), who placed 2nd in this year’s All Japan Student Weight Class Championship, he showed control as a fisherman against his four fighting opponents and dominated the match from beginning to end. At minute 35 seconds, the team wins due to a violation of “Guidance 3″. In the third round, he kicked the tall player Koichi Yamamoto (Kyoto Prison) at 1 minute 17 seconds with a “ichippon” attack that covered his opponent’s corner. In the quarterfinals that follow, they will welcome Kazuya Sato (Nippon Steel), who had advanced by defeating Yusei Ogawa (Park 24) in the previous match due to a “guidance 3” violation, to the tatami. This match, which was expected to be the climax, was a battle of attrition with a match time of over 7 minutes, but at 3 minutes and 51 seconds into the overtime period, the opponent was trying to get out of the way from the right Ouchi Gari, but he was able to seize the opportunity and win by ippon. .
