Tara Danels and Atara Vogelstein. Coach Sonya Howell says that this a very<br />

for it with their play on the court. Following two seasons with trips to the finals and<br />

semi-finals, respectively, they are looking to surpass any past performance. Their two<br />

veteran Seniors lead the squad. Charlotte Marx-Arpadi makes her presence felt in the<br />

front court, while Mia Applebaum shores up the back court. The Juniors fill out the<br />

squad and have invigorated this team with their energy and work ethic. Coach Stacy<br />

Hollander is excited to return to <strong>Beth</strong> <strong>Tfiloh</strong> where she played and coached. The Heat<br />

Girls hope to bring their A-game to Baltimore and look forward to a fun and exciting<br />

weekend!

The Lady <strong>Tigers</strong> return with enthusiasm to the <strong>Beth</strong> <strong>Tfiloh</strong> Weiner Tournament for<br />

the third straight year. The team is coming off a winning season with last year’s junior<br />

varsity team going undefeated. With head new coach Marc Levinson and high<br />

expectations, we see good things from the team this year. Like the boys team, the Lady<br />

<strong>Tigers</strong> compete in the Chicago Prep League. While it is a young squad overall, the<br />

team has great leaders in its seniors Shelby Cooper and Alison Dreifuss. Look for this<br />

to be a breakout year for hard-working junior forward Naomi Michael and the very<br />

talented sophomore guard Alana Stoehr. Sophomore forwards Caroline Dreifuss and<br />

Annie Schrayer came on strong at the end of last season, and their play has picked up<br />

already quite a bit this season. The Lady <strong>Tigers</strong> look forward to their return to Baltimore<br />

and to seeing old friends and meeting new ones.

Schwartz, and great new additions, Nicole Drutz, Rachel Benezrah, Zoey Freedman, Madeleine<br />

Gottesman, Zoey Katz, Aleeza Yermus, and Sydnee Silverberg, they have worked very hard<br />

together, and have had a successful season thus far with a 4-2 record. With noticeable<br />

improvements both offensively and defensively, the <strong>Tigers</strong> pride themselves on going hard for<br />

all four quarters, and always come off the court feeling as though they have given it their best.<br />

The team is looking forward to an exciting and memorable Weiner Tournament. GO TIGERS!

The HAFTR Lady Hawks are coming off a tremendous 2009-<br />

2010. The team went undefeated during the regular MYHSL<br />

season but came up a little short, losing to SAR in the league<br />

championship game. This year's squad is returning seven players<br />

from that team, including three members who started last year.<br />

The Lady Hawks as always will rely on tough defense to help<br />

power them to easy fast break opportunities.

Fresh off an appearance in last season’s conference title game, the Warriors are<br />

hungry to make this season an even better one. Coached by Brian Hubbard, Melvin<br />

Bridges, Eli Creeger, and student assistant Eli Katz, BT will rely on aggressive defense<br />

and an abundance of quickness. Returning starters Tani Weissman and Adam Venick<br />

will lead the way on offense, while fellow Seniors Josh Flax, Eli Plaut, and AJ Hurwitz<br />

will also be counted on for big things. There are also a number of players moving up<br />

from the JV ready to make a splash on the Varsity level. The Warriors are excited to<br />

take the court in this year’s Weiner Tournament!

Led by new head coach Aldo Redendo and returning assistant Abraham Keita,<br />

the Heschel Heat have high hopes for this season. After a rough start, the Heat seem to<br />

be headed in the right direction. Led by a plethora of talented seniors, Heschel is<br />

characterized by their tough defense. After a difficult loss in the Yeshiva League<br />

Championship game last season, the Heat are motivated to get back there and win their<br />

first Varsity Basketball championship in school history.

The boys’ basketball team looks to have another winning season. The team was<br />

the Illinois High School Association regional champions last year—the first Jewish high<br />

school to accomplish this. The team returns all but one starter, and has a strong group<br />

of seniors: Aaron “LC” Cohn, Adam Seidenberg, Zach Spellman, Danny Stamos, Kevin<br />

Rahmanim, and Paz Abergel. Junior Sam “The Gentle Giant” Botbol gives the team a<br />

strong presence at center, while newcomer sophomore Jake Newlander is dangerous<br />

from all areas of the court. Juniors Jeff Budweg, Noah Chasin, Adam Schrag, and Max<br />

Geifman round out the squad.<br />

Veteran coach Saul Shaoul returns for his fifth season as head coach. The team<br />

joined the prestigious Chicago Prep League this year and faces tough competition both<br />

in and out of conference. The team is a past participant in the Sarachek and Memphis<br />

tournaments and really looks forward to joining the CJHS girls team in Baltimore.

The <strong>CHAT</strong> <strong>Tigers</strong> are coming to Baltimore with an aggressive mentality,<br />

planning to attack their opponents with quick and ferocious offense and<br />

defense. With the legendary coaching of the one and only Aubrey Zimmerman,<br />

this team should perform plays with textbook execution. The <strong>Tigers</strong> have many<br />

returning members from last year’s senior team such as Adam “9 foot 3”<br />

Halpern, Josh “Dougie” Tayar, Ori “Tea n Crumpets” Ohayon and Misha<br />

“Herschdog” Herschorn, as well as many new seniors like Brad “Jacked” Lastman,<br />

Russel “The Tank” Handelman, Jonah “Oshe” Osher and Nate Weisbr”o”od,<br />

“Captain Awesome and Mr. Fabulous” AKA Tyler Smith and Lawrence Stefaniu, as<br />

well as two new senior managers: Adam “Singer” Singer and Michael “Zig-Zag”<br />

Zagdanski. Coming in from the junior team are none other than Arie “Rook”<br />

Cote, Ryan “Coco” Cohen, Simon “Oliver” Axelrod and Noah “Clown” Walters. All<br />

of these representatives of The Anne and Max Tanenbaum Community Hebrew<br />

Academy of Toronto <strong>Wallenberg</strong> <strong>Campus</strong> will definitely provide for some<br />

serious competition in the tournament and will hopefully take home the gold.
