|Mitoizumi       3-9   Tomoefuji     2-10   yorikiri
|Takatoriki      7-5   Tochinowaka   4-8    hatakikomi
|Kotonowaka      6-6   Higonoumi     5-7    yorikiri
|Takanonami      9-3   Kenko         6-6    uwatenage
|Daishoho        8-4   Musashimaru   5-7    shitatenage
|Wakanohana      9-3   Kotonishiki   7-5    makiotoshi
|Takanohana     10-2   Terao         4-8    oshidashi
|Akebono        12-0   Kotofuji      5-7    oshidashi
|
|Two more rikishi made kachikoshi today:  Mainoumi and Daishoho.
|I'd have to wonder why Kushimaumi is being allowed to run up his
|record in the lower ranks.  With only 3 losses, he should be 
|going against higher-ranked rikishi.
|
|With only 3 days left, Akebono is definitely in the driver's seat.
|He goes against Kotonishiki tomorrow, Waka on Saturday and then
|Taka on Sunday.  While he is likely to be feeling a lot of 
|pressure to go unbeaten, I don't see him losing more than once.
|Musashimaru, though, looks pretty lost these days, and should be
|out of his long-held post at Sekiwake next basho.  
|
|Otherwise, today was not really that exciting, and there weren't
|any particularly newsworthy items.  
|
|Mata nee....
