Saint Louis grad Yosei Takahashi is living out football…

Fourteen months after graduating from Saint Louis School, former Crusader Yosei Takahashi continues to chase his gridiron dreams, both collegiately and internationally.

Takahashi, a wide receiver from the Saint Louis Class of 2023, moved from Osaka, Japan, to Oahu as a 7th grader in hopes of pursuing football at the next level. Those hopes have turned into reality as he enters his sophom*ore season at the University of San Diego (USD) in the FCS.

In his freshman year, Takahashi made history as the first native of Japan to play in every game as a freshman in NCAA history.

Over the summer, he helped Japan secure a silver medal at the IFAF Under-20 World Championships. His performance included scoring a touchdown in the title game against Canada and contributing to a 41-20 victory over the United States, a game that went viral on social media.
