After two incredible summers as an NCSYer, Moti Schreck now returns to Kollel for his first time as a madrich. Moti resides in Woodmere, NY, and is a proud alum of DRS Yeshiva High School. Moti has spent the last two years learning in KBY, where he excitedly awaits returning for a third year. Being a madrich has provided Moti with the chance to fulfill one of his greatest dreams—to teach Torah and play an active role in helping boys develop in their Avodas Hashem.
Moti has the privilege of coaching an all-star lineup from all across the Yeshiva High School league.
Leading off, fresh out of Heichal HaTorah, Akiva Tuchman takes the bat. Akiva has unwavering consistency, a remarkably high interest level, and is a real backbone of the group. Akiva’s positive nature and constant smile light up the chaburah every day.
Next, another Heichal HaTorah prodigy, Yehuda Zauderer, steps up to the plate. Yehuda is a serious masmid who promises to keep the chaburah on their toes by drawing from his deep background in Gemara to raise challenging questions and ha’aros. It is no surprise Yehuda came up big in leading the chaburah to its Torah Bowl victory.
Batting third, the TABC legend, Eli Hochberg. Eli brings an incredibly wide breadth of knowledge and analysis to the plate. Whether it’s through supplying an extra source nobody would’ve known or stepping up in trivia, Eli certainly has the credentials for this key role.
Next, a real powerhouse out of DRS, Moshe Shtern is batting cleanup. From within the learning to the varied chaburah challenges, Moshe draws on his creativity and leadership skills as he takes a lead role in guiding the chaburah. Some may even call him Madrich-Mo.
In the 5 slot, Benny Lazar, another dangerous bat out of DRS, steps up to hit. Benny’s curiosity, thirst for Torah, and philosophical bent combine to make him a pitcher’s nightmare. Refusing to take anything for granted, Benny utilizes his skills and motivation to give the chaburah big hits in big spots.
Last but certainly not least, David Gluck takes his crack at the ball. Hailing from Ohr HaTorah Yeshiva High School, David is a steady source of energy and never fails to come up in the clutch. David’s remarks in the chaburah are always on the ball and often make the chaburah rethink its understanding of the learning. It is exactly this type of quality, precise hitter the team needs to round out the lineup and seal the game.
With such an incredible group, Moti’s chaburah has been thriving, and there’s no doubt the rest of the summer will bring even bigger wins, both on and off the field.
