The Drink Up Jewish Link Sportstar of the Week: Aryeh Owrutsky

The Jewish Link and Drink Up would like to recognize 14-year-old Aryeh Owrutsky as this week’s Sportstar of the Week. The eighth grader at the Rosenbaum Yeshiva of North Jersey is the ultimate assist master, and that is not just when he’s on the court. Regardless of the situation and despite being busy with his studies, Aryeh is the first to assist anyone with anything. Always sporting a casual, friendly smile, he can be counted on to pass a kind word, score a compliment or serve up a thank you to others. Aryeh is a fan favorite among his peers as a go-to player.
