Trip To USSR Awaits
Ann Arbor's Benson
RICHARD PEARL
Staff Writer
A
aron Benson of Ann
Arbor Pioneer is
wrapping up his high
school hockey career by
playing behind the Iron Cur-
tain — or what's left of it.
Benson, 18 and a senior at
Pioneer, is one of about 20
prep hockey players from
Pioneer and crosstown rival
center and captain on the
school team which bowed out
of the high school regional
finals with a 7-12-3 record.
Highlight of the season, he
said, was the Pioneers' tie
with East Kentwood, which
went on to win the state
championship.
Benson, a Beth Israel Con-
gregation member and the
only Jewish player on the
Americans, plans to con-
tinue playing hockey. He
has applied to Tufts Univer-
sity in Boston for an athletic
scholarship. 1711

Aaron Benson:
Checking progress.
Ann Arbor Huron who will
be touring the Soviet Union
during spring break as part
of a specially created team
called the Ann Arbor Ameri-
cans.
The team will play in
Moscow, Leningrad and
other Soviet cities and in
Helsinki, Finland. The tour
and the team were organized
by Paul Helber of Ann Ar-
bor, who two years ago par-
ticipated with his son in a
similar tour with Cranbrook
Academy.
The March 30-April 9 tour
will bring Benson back in
time for the first Passover
seder.
"It will be interesting to
see if what they say about
the Soviet Union's progress-
ing politically is true," said
Benson, who carries a 3.5
academic average and is a
Pioneer student council
representative.
Other than summer
hockey camp in Canada,
Benson has never been out-
side the United States.
A three-year letterman at
Pioneer, Benson was on the
1987-88 Pioneer team which
was state hockey runner-up.
"We should have been
much better this year than
we were," said Benson,
