"Jewish mothers are proud when their son or daughter become successful in sports, but then there's the greatest honor of all: their child appearing on a matzah box. Former Rolling Hills Prep guard Benny Gealer, a senior at Stanford averaging 10.6 points this season, is a candidate for the L'Cheisman trophy, sponsored by Manischewitz looking to honor the top Jewish college sports athletes."
"Forget the $10,000 prize money. The most important reward in the mind of his mother is that the winner gets to appear on a limited-edition cover of its matzah box. So the Gealer family is all in. Gealer was an All-CIF guard at Rolling Hills Prep who went to Stanford as a walk-on and is now starting. Here's the link to vote for your favorite Jewish college sports athlete."
