A suburban New York City girl’s high school basketball game was stopped in the third quarter after the visiting squad was subjected to a series of antisemitic slurs.
The incident occurred on the evening of Dec. 4 in Yonkers during a non-league varsity matchup between Roosevelt High School, a public school, and The Leffell School, a private Jewish school in Hartsdale.
“I support Hamas, you f–king Jew,” a Roosevelt player barked at a Leffell opponent, according to The New York City Public Schools Alliance, a group of parents and teachers fighting antisemitism.
The Jewish players were eventually escorted off the court by security after a barrage of antisemitic slurs was fired their way.

Eta - Reminder that this is the Jewish group, posters are expected to be mindful that this is a safe space to discuss issues important to Jews.
