10. Sakae Echigo
Sakae Echigo is a 3rd year setter and team captain of Tsubakihara Academy. He is 183.2 cm (6' 0.1") tall and has an amazing combination of power, stamina and technique.

9. Kenjirō Shirabu
Kenjirō is a second-year student attending Shiratorizawa Academy. He is very hard working and knows how and when to make changes. Shiratoizawa has Ushiwaka who is an excellent spiker due to which his primary job is to set for him which he handled perfectly. A good spiker needs a good setter and we all know how good Ushijima is, so give some credit to Kenjirō.

6. Semi Eita
Semi is a 3rd year student of Shiratorizawa Academy. He plays on the boys volleyball team as a pinch server and setter. In terms of skills and technique he outclass Kenjirō (starting setter of the team) but due to his unsafe playing style which doesn't suit Ushijima, he is not a part of the team's starting lineup. He is hot headed and hungry for the spotlight but we can't deny that he could be a great player if he would play with some other team. He is also very good at serving.
5. Keiji Akaashi
Akaashi is a second year setter and vice captain of Fukurōdani Academy, boys volleyball team. He bears a huge responsibility of his team on his shoulders. First of all he is a setter who is the piller of offences, second he has to make sure that everything is working fine for their ace spiker, Bokuto. He also acts like a leader in absence of Bokuto. He is very sharp and capable of making split second decisions. In short, he is the backbone of his team.
4. Kenma Kozume
Kenma is a second year student in Nekoma High. He is the team's setter and considered as the "heart" and "brain" of the team due to his setting skills and analytical personality. He can analyse his opponents and can control the game at his will. He always remains calm and doesn't show his emotions.

He is a volleyball genius who can play any position with perfection but what he is best at is setting. He can set the ball perfectly from any position and exactly as required by the spiker. His quick attack with Hinata is considered one of the best thanks to his amazing skills. He could out match even the best of the best in terms of setting. Due to his perfect technique and skills he got an invite from the national team of Japan for a training camp which proves his worth.
