The Jewish Link of Bergen County would like to highlight great Bergen County athletes. This week we had the privilege of interviewing three of the Guzman children on Teaneck Junior Soccer opening day.

Ahuva Kayla Guzman, age 10

Role model: my Daddy

Favorite Athlete: My bro Eitan

Favorite sports memory: The soccer season where I was the only one on my team who scored any goals all season!

Pre-game meal: my Mom is a health coach so she feeds us healthy food that gives us a lot of energy–usually chicken, sweet potatoes, broccoli, and avocado.

Best thing about being a sports star: playing and doing the sports I really love like riding a horse (I love horses), playing basketball, Zumba dancing, and, of course, soccer. Being a role model to other kids to teach them to have fun moving your body.

Aliza Guzman, age 8

Favorite athlete: my brother Eitan

Role model: my Mom because she taught me how to be a lady.

Favorite sports memory: winning the championship game last season and never losing any games all soccer season.

Best thing about being a sport star: playing sports is a lot of fun and I think that all kids should play sports and choose a sport that they love and have fun playing.

Fully Guzman, age 4

Favorite athlete: Eitan my brother

Role model: my big brother, Eitan

Favorite sports memory: playing soccer with Ari Schulhof

Best thing about being a sport star: I love playing ball with my friends.

It looks like we are going to have to follow up with an interview of everyone’s favorite athlete Eitan Guzman. If you have a local sports picture, story or athlete to nominate for Sportstar of the week, send them to [email protected]
