<Comment from the captain of the UTokyo water polo team>
I am very glad we won two straight championships. I would like to thank the people involved because they helped manage this meet successfully.

As a result, 10 points given for the water polo competition have been awarded to UTokyo.
UTokyo maintains its first place position, and Osaka University is in second place.

The next competition, the kyudo (Japanese archery) competition, will be held at Ikutoku-do on the Hongo Campus from August 26 to 31, 2016.

Let's cheer for UTokyo!
