About the Contributor
Daniel Gorelik
Daniel Gorelik, Onilne Assistant Sports Editor
A quirky character, Daniel enjoys many fun-filled activities. When it comes to sports, his favorites are soccer and tennis. He always tries to go out on adventures and those who know him, know that he has the imagination of a six-year-old (that’s a good thing). If someone gave him a box to play with, he would think of so many games that no Xbox could compete with him. Aside from that, in his spare time he enjoys just hanging out with friends or watching some TV. His favorite shows include “Entourage,” probably one the greatest shows ever created, and various other comedies like “Two and a Half Men” and “Seinfeld.” If you ever decide to find him, he'll probably be taking a walk along the beach or reading a book by the sunset.
