Coach Michibata Says:
Yohei earned a spot on the team as a walk-on this fall through his great attitude and good work ethic. His hard work paid off this fall when he reached the semi finals of the Columbia Invitational. He is looking to build on those results and earn a spot in the starting lineup.
