    On the pitch and in the lab, College student Ali Alamery gives the same all-out focus. The starting goalie for the Maroons men's soccer team, he also studies brain cancer and volunteers with hospice patients and hospitalized kids. Meet this UChicagoan: ms.spr.ly/6013aHe3N
    A male soccer goalkeeper in a light blue kit and black undersleeves lies on green turf, hands on a soccer ball. He is in front of a goal net. Behind the net is a dark banner with 'MARONS' and a 'C' logo. Another player's leg is blurred in the upper right.
    A man with curly dark hair, wearing a white University of Chicago lab coat and blue gloves, looks at the camera while pipetting into a tray of samples in a busy lab. Shelves stocked with bottles and boxes are visible. Another person works on a laptop in the background.
