He was on Team USA, competed and placed in the world championships, and was a national champion. CrazyAces489 (talk) 22:03, 12 November 2014 (UTC)
- The Higashi name is known to me mainly through his father and aikido. However, Shintaro was never national champion and at the world championship he attended but did not make it past the first round. He's ranked as the article says 51st. Anyway its just a tag that basically says a better case should be made.Peter Rehse (talk) 22:35, 12 November 2014 (UTC)
- Understood, I thought this was a good enough reference, 21/04/2007 1 US National Championships Miami NC U100 and 29/04/2011 1 US National Championships Orlando NC U100, I did not want it to become a list of results. [1] CrazyAces489 (talk) 22:40, 12 November 2014 (UTC)
