On a winning track—Birmingham-Southern senior Aly Goldfarb returned from the 18th World Maccabiah Games in Israel earlier this month with a gold medal in the 4x400-meter relay, a silver in the half marathon, and two bronze medals in the 400-meter run and the pole vault. Goldfarb, a member of the BSC track and field team, ran a 1.42 in the half marathon, clocked a 59.82 for her third-place finish in the 400m, and cleared 3.60m for the bronze in the pole vault. Despite not placing in the 800-meter run due to illness, Goldfarb was able to mount a come-from-behind lead in the relay to help Team USA win gold. Goldfarb's father, Preston Goldfarb, longtime coach of the BSC men's soccer team, and brother, Sean Goldfarb '09, were also at the games as coaches for the Maccabi USA Men's Soccer Team and Junior Boys Soccer Team, respectively. The 2009 games brought nearly 7,000 Jewish athletes from around the world to compete for gold.
