Greetings
I've become a very big fan of Japan women's indoor volleyball, and there is very little coverage of it in English. I'm trying to improve that situation by updating Wikipedia articles etc., and there is a website database I'm working on: Volleybox.
I'm working on 筑波大 (Tsukuba Daigaku) players and can't get even close with a few of the names:
The Japanese National team usually provides romanized names (I believe that's the term) but as I've worked my way into college and high school players in an effort to show where the NT players come from, not so much. The National teams put romanized names on their jerseys so when I watch matches I can at least get the family names of players who get court time. University and H.S players don't do that. It's very difficult to even find a team roster anywhere. I found the 筑波大 roster here
Thanks for any help.

- 高間 来瞳 I don't think "High-be Pupil" is right LOL. Maybe something close to "Takama Kurumi" "Hitomi Takama" "Takamitsu Kurumi" "Hitomi Takamitsu"
- 甲萌香 "KinoeMoeKaoru", nah. I settled on "Kia Moka" but feel very little confidence in that choice
- 山城 愛心 "Fortress Love" nope. I do recognize the 山 as 'yama' (I think). Maybe "Ai Yama ...something" although I looked to match 愛心 to Ai Kurogo 黒後 愛 and it's a character short. Maybe "Aishin"?
