◇ Semifinals ◇ 2nd ◇ Tokyo Chichibumiya Rugby Stadium

Tenri University (1st in Kansai), aiming to achieve the first victory of the coveted desire, decided to advance to the final for the first time in two tournaments. He was humiliated 41-15 for Meidai (1st place in Kanto competition) who lost the last two seasons. From the same university in 1984, when he won the championship for the third time in a row, he won the championship for the first time in 36 Kansai tournaments.

At that time, director Setsuo Komatsu (57), who was at the same university for the first year, and Tenri University are aiming for the top in the third final. Waseda University (second place in the competition), aiming for the second consecutive victory, defeated Teikyo University (fourth place) 33-27. The final on the 11th (Tokyo National Stadium) was a meeting between Tenri University and Waseda University.

The sword of Tenri University echoed in the winter sky of Chichibu Shrine. In the 36th minute of the first half of the 7-point lead, considering the fight in the lineout, the penalty in front of the opponent’s goal was the rush. He took the initiative in Rock Moara’s attempt. Captain Flanker Matsuoka said, “I think everyone’s victory.” Director Komatsu was quiet in his 26th season.

“I’m glad I won, but I’m grateful to be able to play another game looking for the best in Japan.”

It’s the best door in Japan that the Kansai group hasn’t opened in a long time. Waseda University, which advanced to the final, has a connection that has been going on for more than 30 years. Principal Komatsu, who completed his two years of study abroad in France in 1984 when the university, which included the late Seiji Hirao and Atsushi Oyagi, won the championship for the third time in a row, is enrolled in the first grade. In the second year, he was prevented from winning the same college for four consecutive years in the first match. In the fourth year when he started at CTB, he played in the final. Kiyomiya, Imaizumi and others succumbed to the initial enemy 10-19. Since then, the Kansai forces haven’t even reached the finals until Tenri University 2011.

In 1993, Director Komatsu went to Tenri University as a coach in Kansai C League (3rd division). Until just before practice, I saw a member biting the television in the club room and thinking, “I don’t know the joy of winning. I’m sorry.” Two years later, in 1925 (Dai 14), even if he was leading the old man from Sobe, the people around him advised him not to attend the OB meeting. The university that advanced from Tenri High School is the same university. I felt “out” and said, “I didn’t know when they told me to quit, but in my case it was at the bottom, so maybe it was good.” He patiently conveyed the fun of rugby and led to promotion to League A in his seventh year in office.

Honest guidance attracted people. Students like Osamu Yatsuhashi, a former representative from Japan who entered the school in the first year of training and was also active in Kobe Steel, are now on the leadership team. “I want you to come back” and “I want to come back”. Foreign students also loaned university land when Japan Airlines Ishikawa Takashi made his first appearance in Hanazono in 2005. International students speak Japanese and become younger brothers in a dormitory system. Komatsu says: “I have never been to Tonga or Fiji to search (international students). I have no special treatment and I am not a helper but a partner.”

8 days until the beginning of the war, when he lost in the semifinals last season. The general swore before the confrontation of destiny.

“I want to think about winning there again and preparing well.”

It is time to change history on the national stage.[Matsumoto Ko]

○… In response to the government’s request to issue an emergency declaration by the metropolitan area 1 metropolitan area and 3 prefectures due to the spread of the new coronavirus infection, there is a possibility that it will affect the final on the 11th. Tenri University, which experienced an outbreak in August last year, understood the situation after the game. On top of that, Captain Flanker Matsuoka said, “Whatever happens, I can challenge myself to the final. I want to be well prepared and have a winning mentality.”

◆ Three consecutive victories from the same university Under the leadership of director Hitoshi Oka (deceased), it achieved the number one university in Japan for the first time in two tournaments in 1982. The final defeated Waseda 18-6. The 1983 final beat Nikkei University 31-7. In the 1984 final, he defeated Keidai 10-6 and won the first three consecutive titles in history. The following year, in 1985, he was 3-3 at Waseda in the first game, and failed to score a fourth consecutive victory.
