s p orts Maccabiah Medals I Steve Stein Contributing Writer ne silver medal. Three bronze medals. Nicole Meisner of Huntington Woods returned home from the 19th Maccabiah Games in Israel with those symbols of her success on the track and memories that will last a lifetime. Her silver medal came in the 4x100- meter relay. The bronze medals were earned in the 100, 200 and 4x400 relay. Not bad for a sprinter who is still not run- Nicole Meisner ning at 100 percent after recovering from a pinched nerve in her back suffered earlier this year. The 20-year-old Berkley High School graduate ran in the open adult division in Israel for the United States, which was represented by more than 900 athletes in what's called the third-largest sports event in the world. Meisner's first request after her return flight landed here was an immediate trip to Lafayette Coney Island in Downtown Detroit. She had a Coney and an order of chili cheese fries. "Our family goes to Lafayette a lot. I missed it," she said. "I told my friends in Israel that would be the first place I'd want to go when I got back home:' This was Meisner's second trip to the Maccabiah Games. She ran in the junior division four years ago when she was 16 and won a silver medal in the 4x100 relay and bronze medal in the 200. She said because she's older and knew what to expect, she had more fun this time. A senior at the University of Detroit Mercy, Meisner is one of the top sprinters on the women's track and field team. She has a 3.5 grade point average and hopes someday to be a criminal profiler for the FBI. Golfers Off To A Good Start It wasn't a hole-in-one, but it wasn't a bogey, either. The inaugural B'nai B'rith golf league wrapped up this month with Al DiPaolo and Harold Silk winning the team cham- pionship and Marc Ruskin capturing the individual title at Fox Hills Golf and Banquet Center in Plymouth. Al DiPaolo and Harold Silk are the champion team of the B'nai B'rith golf league. A dozen golfers — six teams — partici- pated. Teams and individuals battled head- to-head in nine-hole rounds weekly for 15 weeks starting in mid-May. Handicaps were used. League organizer Gary Klinger said while everyone was happy with the hospi- tality at Fox Hills, the league probably will move next year to a course that's closer to the Jewish community. "They have three nine-hole courses at Fox Hills and we got to play them all, which was great:' Klinger said. "But it sometimes was difficult getting there (for Thursday afternoon tee times) during rush hour:' Making A Racquet Andrew Cahn isn't showing signs of a sophomore jinx. The Western Michigan University men's tennis standout from West Bloomfield won both his matches Sept. 15 at the Jack Vredevelt Invite in Kalamazoo. He beat Xavier's Matt Bishop 6-0, 6-1 in singles and combined with Zach Phillips to beat Freddy Abunku and Brian Carman of Xavier 8-4 in doubles. Cahn won a team-high 28 singles matches as a freshman (28-18) last season and was named to the All-Mid-American Conference team. n Send news to sports@thejewishnews.com .
