Former head coach for the Japan men's national volleyball team Gary Sato was thrilled to see his old team as he took in one of the two games that made up an exhibition series between Japan and the United States in Southern California on May 11.
In an email to The Japan Times, Sato said that "it is great the Japanese men's national team came over to USA."
The game he went to was held at the Walter Pyramid on the campus of Long Beach State University.
