Over the summer our own Aidan Blain and Ari Dryek competed in the Maccabiah Games in Israel. This is what Aidan had to say:

This summer I went to Israel to compete in the 2017 Maccabiah Games on the USA track team! There were 10,000 Jewish athletes competing from 80 different countries and it was one of the best experiences of my life. I got to explore Israel, meet great friends and win a bronze medal!! Running in an international track competition is one of the coolest things I have ever done and I look forward to more in the future.
