The Jewish Link and The Humble Toast would like to recognize Judah Ehrenreich as this week’s Sportstar of the Week. The Yeshivat Noam third grader has played in all of the local leagues, BCFL, BBO, MGBL and TABC Jr Hockey, along with Bergen Broncos Basketball and two seasons with Teaneck 8U Summer Travel Baseball. When asked about Judah, a family friend told The Jewish Link, “He has played a pivotal role on every team he has played on. Aside from making an impact on the field he takes pride in being a good teammate, working hard and leading by example.” Judah’s father, Adam, added, “While we are very proud of everything Judah has accomplished on the field of play, whether scoring touchdowns and pulling flags, getting the clutch hit, scoring goals and baskets and winning championships, the most important thing is the sportsmanship and middos he has shown during and after the games. That is what it’s all about.”
