Spirit of lost teammate lives on

Japanese sitting volleyball player Asano Kumi died just 20 days before realizing her dream of competing at the Beijing Paralympic Games.

But that has not stopped her coach and teammates from keeping her spirit always with them.

On Sunday, in their first match against the Dutch, the Japanese team took Kumi's picture and sports jerseys onto the court so that, in the words of head coach Yoshihisa Mano, "Kumi could play with them".
