Catfight Chaos! Maimonides M-CATS Claw Past Rochelle Zell TIGERS 65–46 in Tier III Showdown!

The Tier III clash between the #4-seeded Maimonides M-CATS and the #5-seeded Rochelle Zell Jewish High School TIGERS delivered plenty of claws, grit, and energy—but it was the M-CATS who came out purring loudest with a convincing 65–46 victory.

From the opening tip, Maimonides set the tone with pace and poise. A. Jotkowitz was unstoppable, dropping 21 points while leading the offense with sharp shooting and smooth drives to the hoop. D. Missaghi added 12, and both S. Marcus and I. Winograd chipped in 10 each, giving the M-CATS a balanced attack that left the Tigers scrambling to keep up.

Rochelle Zell battled hard behind N. Lifchitz’s 18 points and R. Ousley’s 14, with L. Shlafrok adding 8, but the Tigers struggled to contain Maimonides’ perimeter rhythm. Every time the Tigers seemed ready to strike, the M-CATS answered with a timely three or a fast-break finish.

By halftime, Maimonides had built a comfortable cushion—and they never let it go. Their ball movement stayed crisp, their defense disciplined, and their bench contributed key minutes to keep the pressure on.

When the final buzzer sounded, the M-CATS had not only secured the win but made a statement: this was no ordinary catfight. With their 65–46 victory, Maimonides advances deeper into Tier III play—focused, fearless, and ready to keep their claws out.
