MacsLive's Dovid Walz played at the Sarachek Tournament twice as the point guard of the MTA Lions. So this is not the first time he's been too excited to sleep the night before the Sarachek Tournament begins...

There are a number of categories into which the teams coming to play in the 19th Red Sarachek Tournament can be split up.

Tier I, Tier II, Tier III, Tier IV.

East Coast, Midwest, West Coast.

In town, out of town.

And finally, 15 and 5; 15 teams who don�t play in the Yeshiva League and 5 who do.

Sarachek is just around the corner and that can only mean one thing: CONTROVERSY!!!! Last year it was Ida Crown not being invited and Valley getting the top seed, and this year the hot topic that is burning up our comments section is the seeding of the Yeshiva Or Chaim Knights out of Toronto, Canada. That�s right. Our neighbors from the Great White North feel they were slighted by being put at the 14th seed, out of range of Tier-I. I plan to break down the argument from both sides and let you be the judge, because, frankly, I�m getting sick of all the e-mails that a new comment has been posted on the site!!!

Not Bad!
