The University of Illinois’ championship men’s basketball team partnered with the Urbana-Champaign campus’ Chabad Center for Jewish Student Life, its traditionally Jewish Zeta Beta Tau fraternity, and the Stuart I. Raskas Freindship Circle of Illinois, a Chabad-Lubavitch program that pairs teenage volunteers with children for special needs, for the annual “Alley-oop for Autism” day of fun at the arena.

Rabbis Zelik Moscowitz, right, director of the Friendship Circle of Illinois, and Dovid Tiechtel, executive director of the Chabad Center for Jewish Life serving the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, partnered with Fighting Illini head coach Bruce Weber for the fourth-annual “Alley-oop for Autism.”
