Meiji University rugby coach credits "thoroughly executing the basics" for national championship victory

Meiji University's rugby team won their 14th national championship, their first in seven years, defeating Waseda University 22-10. Coach Hiroyuki Kanjin, in his fifth year, attributed the victory to his team's dedication to "thoroughly executing the basics" and learning from past finals losses. The win also marks a rare "double crown" for Meiji, achieving both the Kanto League and the National Championship in the same season for the first time since 1996.
