Last Monday, Yeshiva University High School for Boys (MTA) participated in its fourth Torah Bowl meet of the year. It was the most tense meet yet: the playoffs. The participants were tested on Pinchas, Mattot and Masei. Due to MTA’s outstanding play throughout the season, they received a bye in the first round and were to play the winners of the matches between Ramaz, SAR and Heichal HaTorah. The opening match was between SAR and Ramaz, with Ramaz emerging victorious. Ramaz then played a fierce match against Heichal. Heichal took the win, sending them to play against the MTA Lions in a series of three games. In game one, the Lions won with a score of 18-4. The next game was very close, but the Lions lost, making the score of the series 1-1. In game three, the MTA Lions were victorious, sending them to the championships. A big mazal tov to Rabbi Pearl and the team on their win.
