It's Athens vs. Sparta in the World Scholar-Athlete Games
Scholar-Athletes and Scholar-Artists from all around the world bonded as they also competed in a variety of athletic activities at the American School for the Deaf in West Hartford.
The first day of the 9-day World Scholar-Athlete Games/World Youth Peace Summit began with introductory speeches from Ed Peltier, President of the American School for the Deaf, and Connecticut State Rep. Andrew Fleishchmann (D-West Hartford).
Student participants, who hail from all over the world, were divided into two groups – Team Athens and Team Sparta. The groups engaged in "friendly competition" and at the same time got to know each other through attempting a variety of events ranging from the 100-yard dash to a medley of Irish games.
