-----

The bolded ones are the people awarded the fields medal this year.

Top candidates who didn't make it are Jack Thorne, Javier Fresan, and Sam Raskin.

Thorn and Raskin are both 39 years old.  While Fresan is 1 year younger at 38 years old.

Since fields medal only award people younger than 40 years old. They will be inelogible for 2030 Fields Medal consideration.

Basically, the title.

We know Netero was #1. And Ging is anywhere from 2-5.

But who are the other 3?

We all know they treat Goshiki as their next ace.

Semi gradauted too. So, it is not like they can use his creativity as a setter.

Shirabu will still be the full main setter. Now, do you think their playstyle will be the same?

I meant they will treat Goshiki like how they treat Ushijima in their attacks?

Or nope. Because he is not as good as Ushijima?

2014 Setters

Karasuno - Kageyama (2nd year)

Inarizaki - Atsumu (3rd year)

Fukurodani  - Akaashi (3rd year)

Kamomedai - Tokura (2nd year)

Mujinazaka - Usuri (3rd year)

Nekoma - Kenma (3rd year)

Shiratorizawa - Shirabu (3rd year)

Aoba Johsai - Yahaba (3rd year)

Date Tech - Koganegawa (2nd year)

Itachiyama - ???

Ichibayashi - ???

Inubushi - ???

Atsumu and Kageyama are given. But who among these other setters do you think develop to be a monster setter in 2014?

Do you think Osamu became their Ace already? Or he stayed as all around player?

Suna is MB. But he can score.

For the natural spikers. Ginjima, Riseki, ans Kosaku are candidates.

Personally, I think it would be Osamu to partner with his twin settee Atsumu.

I need to exclude Hinata and Kageyama since they will get a lot of votes as the main characters. If you indeed think they were the top 2 performers. Just pick top 3 for you.

But who among them is the best perfomer in Jackals VS Adlers game?

I just realized Fukurodani almost won the 2013 Spring tournament if.... it was 3 set match in the finals.

Fukurodani was actually up 2-1 after 3 sets. Unfortunately, finals is 5 set match instead. Ichibayashi came back and won the 4th and 5th set to win the match.

But of course we need to consider that

Ichibayashi would probably be more aggresive in 3rd set if it was a 3 set match.

I think Ichibayashi is the same level as Fukurodani in 2013 Spring High.

Karasuno is weaker in Interhigh qualifiers than Spring qualifiers???

I just noticed. Even in the story year we followed. Karasuno is significantly stronger in SH Qualifier than IH qualifier.

Even in the following year (2014), they lost against Date Tech in IH Qualifier Finals.

Karasuno won the SH qualifier from 2013-2015. But it is implied that they didn't win IH qualifier from 2013 - 2015.

In IH qualifiers, they lost against Shiratorizawa and Date tech.

Is Karasuno weaker? Or other teams are just opposite where they are stronger in IH season than SH season?

For starters, we have:

Tokyo - Itachiyama, Fukurodani, Nekoma, Nohebi

Miyagi - Karasuno, Shiratorizawa, Aoba Josai, Date Tech

This is close. But I give it to Tokyo. In general, their teams finished better in both Interhigh and Spring.

Though, I think Miyagi is the second strongest prefacture.

Or maybe, other regions are strong too. We just didn't see.

Kageyama played against them both numerous times.

But did Oikawa abs Atsumu played against each other before the time skip?

I know they played against each other after time skip. (I cant spoil)

If they did. When? And who outplayed the other?

We saw some clues and hints that Miyata might avenge Mashiba by fighting Rosario.

This will help Miyata escape the fraud speculation. And he will be a world champion in his ideal weight if he beats Rosario.

Do you think Miyata will win against Rosario right now?
