Claudia Sheinbaum, the first woman and first Jew to serve as Mexico’s president, rarely addresses her Jewishness in public.
The truth is that whether or not Sheinbaum feels strongly connected to Judaism, it will always be connected to her.

Signing out. Not Yale’s best day on the court but such a privilege to come out to Spokane and cover this team!
Looking forward to what next season brings.
Yale head coach James Jones went over to thank the fans and the Yale cheerleaders after the Bulldogs loss to San Diego State.
A classy move from the veteran coach.
“Obviously you don’t want to fumble on the first play, but I’ve been bouncing back from adversity all year, this team never stops pounding.”
What a game!

“Just mustard!?” The man at the counter asks me. He’s shocked.
Observation: Here in Israel, ppl will order a sandwich/pita and then add up to 6 or 7 sauces. Ketchup bbq ranch pesto chili etc.
I like sauces, but how can you taste all of those at once? I’m good with one or two.
Auburn is a very tough draw for Yale. The Tigers are No.4 in kenpom and have blown out nearly every team they've faced in conference play.

How is Auburn a four seed??

Huge loss for Yale and head coach James Jones, but the Bulldogs are still in good shape for next season.
Full story to come.
With course registration for fall 2024 slated to open on April 15, students looking to get a head start on scheduling have noticed a significantly diminished course catalog.
Interestingly, roughly 200 new courses appeared on YCS this morning.
The Ivy League has never sent two teams to play in March Madness. This season, standout play from Yale Princeton and Cornell could challenge that precedent.
Still, an at-large bid is unlikely given the NCAA’s selection criteria.
Yale wins over Harvard AND Princeton loses to Cornell.
Huge Saturday for the Bulldogs.
Friday night matchup vs Princeton will still be the biggest of the season.

Yale is now a 12 point underdog vs Gonzaga tonight.
To win, they’ll need to
1. Slow Gonzaga in transition
2. Play tough interior defense
3. Get Mahoney and Poulakidas open looks
4. Play as a team

Yale’s Danny Wolf has set a new Yale record for double-doubles in an Ivy season with 9.
If he gets another one next week vs Brown, he’ll break the Ivy League record.
Yale basketball recap:
68-50 W vs Colgate Friday
75 - 65 OT loss vs Weber State Saturday
71-70 OT win vs Gardner Webb today
Slightly underwhelming weekend, would like to see Yale get more bench production.
Danny Wolf was phenomenal. Had 21 points 11 rebounds today.
The News analyzed over 5,000 Federal Elections Commission filings from 2023 with Yale University listed as an employer. Professors donated a total of roughly $127,000, of which 98.4 percent went to Democratic candidates and groups.

Yale gets a blowout victory in its first game of the season. Forward Matt Knowling '24 shot a perfect 10/10 from the field and finished with 20 points. Guard Bez Mbeng '25 added 7 points and 6 assists. Full recap to come.
In Yale's first class since the end of affirmative action, the share of Black and Latine student enrollment remains consistent with previous years.
There was a decrease in the share of Asian-American students, while the enrollment of white students rose.
Yale 66, SCU 58
Yale’s best win of the season. F Danny Wolf had 25 points and 13 rebounds.
Bulldogs came in as 3 point underdogs on the road vs a strong Santa Clara team. Encouraging performance with Ivy League play ahead.
Just over six months ago, the Yale men’s basketball season came to an end in the Ivy League finals — one stop short of March Madness.
Heading into the 2023-2024 season, Yale — selected first in the Ivy League’s preseason media poll — is loaded.

Beautiful morning here on Princeton’s campus.
Yale is a +4 underdog heading into tonight’s matchup. A win would mean their best start to an Ivy League season in school history.

Bulldogs survive a late Brown comeback attempt. Wolf and Mbeng led the scoring with 16 apiece.
Overall a strong start to the Ivy League season for Yale.

Pearl is also Jewish, and very involved in the

Yale’s Director of Operations Matt Elkin is also very involved with the organization.
Princeton’s Caden Pierce and Cornell’s Chris Manon both referred to Columbia’s Levien gymnasium as a “shooters gym” on Friday.

Tried to use my Israeli phone number to register for an online platform. Didn't work. But it did lead to some noteworthy findings.
Will share in an article later this week.
ESPN's new"Bracketology" features one Ivy league team, and its not Princeton or Yale. It's...Cornell???
This time last year, Cornell was 15-5. Then, they lost 6 of their next 8 games and Yale knocked them out.
@espn
make no mistake. The title is Yale or Princeton's to lose.
Penn about to pull off a HUGE upset vs No.21 Villanova
- first year Tyler Perkins looks like their best player.
Good day for Ivy League basketball! But, I'm still not buying into Penn this year.
Don't think they'll make the Ivy tournament.
Slippery turf today at

camp. Keenan Allen tripped on a deep post and Rome Odunze took a spill a play later on a slant route.
Caleb Williams has completed 5/11 passes in 1-on-1's albeit some rough play from the Bears defensive backs. Couple flags already.
Malley’s Jackson fellowship appointment has drawn scrutiny by American politicians and Iran scholars who believe his ongoing investigation should be cause for concern.
The Israel u20 basketball team just upset Spain 59-52 in the round of 16 of the Euro championship. They now advance to the round of 8.
Leading the way for Israel? None other than Yale big man Danny Wolf, who put up 21 pts and 13 reb.
Awesome Yale basketball x Israel crossover!

Very unfortunate for the Ivy League. Pen’s Tyler Perkins and Brown’s Nana Owusu Anane also leaving early.

Bulldogs move to 4-0. Full recap of the tournament to come.
Princeton is your 1-seed after a pretty shocking Brown comeback at Yale. Expect a lot of Brown hype for the tourney given their hot finish; I don’t really see it, but we’ll see.
