Sport
While at MIT I played with the MIT
grad soccer team.
In the picture (click it for a bigger one) I am easily recognizable
by the yellow socks. I used to wear either yellow or red socks, for
no reason other than that those socks were my own and they fit my
feet better than the black ones
of the team's uniform (regardless of what Bashar, 4th from the right
in the standing row, may be saying!).
This team won the 2001 Bay
State Soccer League. We also won both the League and the Bay
State Cup in 1996. In 2004 the team won again the Bay State Soccer
League (I had already left Boston at that time).
I scored a total of 77 gaols in 6 years (only Rich scored more
than me, but he played many more years).
I also enjoyed playing hockey. I had to learn from scratch since I
could not even skate in the beginning. I never learned to skate backwards,
but after a couple of years I was able to
go quite fast forward and to brake. That was enough
to play decently in the MIT D league with the Lab for
Computer Science's Halting Problem team. On the left is a picture of this
team for the year 2001; I am in the front row on the right.
I scored a total of 3 (!!!) goals with this team, 2 of which
in my last game. I actually scored also one other goal in a game
played with the hockey team of the Math department. That makes a total
of 4 (!!!) goals in my hockey career ;-).
The picture on the right shows a play where I am waiting
(right in front of the goally) for an assist from Charles Leiserson (no. 75).
Unfortunately I did not score that time.
