The captain of the girls' track team tells the other girls that he's worried about Asahina's performance at the upcoming district track meet. He's also worried about the local celebrity who's been a big part of the team's success the last two years, and he hopes that he won't have to compete against him again. The captain also tells the girls that the local star, a junior named Tomoyuki, was killed in a car crash two years ago, and that he wasn't the best sprinter in the world, but he was a great athlete. The other girls agree with the captain's assessment, but they don't know what to make of the local superstar.
