medals, at least. In boys 13-14
doubles, lbdd Stoneman and
Brad Shulman made the
finals, assuring them of at
least silver medals.
Stoneman, Shulman and
Steve Sampson all played
their way through the round-
robin and were still alive in
singles play.
The three gymnasts all
made the finals of at least two
events. Meryl Bender was
still competing in all four
events: vault, uneven parallel
bars, balance beam and floor
exercises. Heather Kahn
made the finals in vault and
bars while Michelle Wolfe
was a finalist in the vault and
floor exercises.
Jennifer Goldfarb was still
competing in tennis, having
earned a quarterfinal singles
berth in the girls 15-16 divi-
sion, as well as a quarterfinal
Saltz Cut
first time in four years. "It's
the same thing as when you
go from high school to col-
lege," he explains. "You have
to start all over again as a
freshman. I don't know
what's worse, being a rookie
or a freshman ... It's a shock.
Especially because in college
you can reach some pretty
high goals, you can really
establish an identity in col-
lege. Then to come here and
have all these guys who've
also done the same thing, if
not more, they set you right
back down to size again. It's
hard starting over."
Saltz and 10 other Lion
hopefuls were victims of a
mandatory roster cutdown to
60 players. The final cut, to 47
players, is Aug. 29. As an ear-
ly cut, Saltz may have time to
sign with another team. Also,
if one of the Lions' quarter-
backs gets injured, Saltz
would be a prime replace-
ment candidate because of his
familiarity with the team's of-
fensive system.°
spot, along with Rona Fenton,
in doubles. Danny Friedman
made it to the quarters in
boys 13-14 singles.
Neal Brand was still com-
peting in racquetball, having
made the quarterfinals.
Detroit is usually strong in
individual events in Maccabi
competition. "Our individual
performances are about the
same as we always are,"
summed up Robinson on
Monday night. "It's very, very
tough. There's a lot of good
kids here. It's hard to win in-
dividual medals."
Robinson was particularly
encouraged by Detroit's
teams. "Our teams are doing
better than we've done
before:'
The basketball team went
3-1 in round robin play, earn-
ing a playoff spot. Both soft-
ball teams also earned playoff
spots. The girls' team was 3-1
in their round robin while the
boys' squad went 1-1-1. Ties
are possible because of a time
limit. The soccer team was
also in the playoffs with a 3-1
round robin mark.
Robinson praised the
Chicago organizers for their
efforts. "The meets are well-
run and they're under some
pretty good conditions and
they're nice venues . . . It's a
good games. The kids are hav-
ing a good time."
While Ann Arbor's smaller
delegation had no wins
through Monday, delegation
leader Nancy Margolis said
the athletes are "having a
marvelous time meeting with
athletes from all over the
world, Jewish athletes. And I
think that's what these
games are all about. Chica-
go's done a fine job of organi-
zing." Despite the size of its
delegation, Margolis also re-
ported excellent support from
the athletes' families.
The games ended yesterday.
The Detroit delegation
returns today.
Detroit will play host to the ,
next Maccabi youth games in
1990. ❑
