![]() Basketball Macs' Season EndsBy Commentator StaffAfter one of Yeshiva University's most spectacular basketball seasons, the Maccabees finished with an astonishing 16-7 record. The Mac's win total tied the highest in YU history, achieved by only two other Maccabee teams. Regrettably, the Macs were not invited to the East Coast Athletic Conference Tournament, the prestigious Division III tournament in which YU occasionally competes. Basketball TournamentBy Greg SamuelsYeshiva University is set to host this year's Red Sarachek Basketball Tournament, scheduled to run from March 18th to the 23rd. The tournament, named after famous Jewish basketball coach Red Sarachek, is a competition between some of the best Jewish high school teams in the nation. While many in both the gentile and Jewish worlds scoff at the concept of "Jewish basketball," this year's event should prove that Jewish kids can play ball after all. This is due in a large part to the fact that "The Great Jewish Hope," Tamir Goodman, will be returning to play for the Baltimore Talmudic Academy (T.A.) Tigers. What do you think?
