Tachiai’s favorite Texan rikishi is back in action on day 12, with a solid chance to improve his record for Haru. On Thursday, Wakaichiro faces off against Sandanme 86 Hokutohomare, from Hakkaku heya. Hokutohomare is a long term veteran who has been in sumo since 2011, and has gotten as high as Sandanme 80. He has a great deal of experience, and will present a solid challenge to Wakaichro.

As always, we will bring results and video as soon as we have them.
