Koshien is the name of a stadium in Osaka, I believe, and is the location of the "High School World Series" of Japan. Every year, one team represents each of the 47 prefectures of Japan and competes for fame and glory. The Okinawa representative is being determined in a local tournament that started last week Saturday (the 16th) and lasts until mid-July. So yesterday was my school's first game, against the dreaded (well, not really) Nago High School. The result: a predictable 7-0 victory for the good guys! Here is a shot of our pitcher mid-windup. He pitched a strong game, and with the help of solid team defence, did not allow a single run. Next up: I don't know. But if at all possible, I will be in attendance at the game!
