Mario Austin, Hapoel Jerusalem

Usually when someone talks about sports I tend to tune out. But going to a game is a whole other story. I love the drums, the energy, and people saying hatikva to the little flags stitched into the team scarves. Probably in an effort to fill the stadium, the Malha Arena offered 20 participants from the Jerusalem branch of Big Brothers Big Sisters free court-side seats this past Thursday nght. Whatever the reasoning, the thought was well appreciated by both big and little brothers/sisters who were on their feet the whole game rooting for Jenkins’ and Austin’s 3 pointers. What? Those doesn’t sound like nice Jewish names? For those of you into the actual sports part – Hapoel Jerusalem won 110-69 against Rishon Lezion.
