Hello UDH Players!

Yours unspellably had to give away the crown he won in 2002 and proudly wore
for the last six basho -- no wonder after two high make-koshi in the first
half of this year. At least I could hand it to another Futagoyama affiliated
player.

I hereby porudly announce the UDH Rikishi of the Year 2003:

    Takanorappa!

He never won a special prize or yusho honors in the past year, but he still
finished one point ahead of Andoreasu. Many of the riksihi in the upper
regions may have wished Kyushu never took place -- it caused severe damage
to their overall results.

Only one out of the top twenty scores just kachi-koshi: Mannibiyama finishes
on the eigth place.
