Clippers swim to victory
The Xaverian High School Swim Team ended the 2012-2013 season in fine form, with two commanding dual meet victories. The Clippers also went on to win the CHSAA Novice Championships, and had their best finish since 2005 in the CHSAA City Championship finals.
Xaverians last home meet of the season, which marked the final home competition for graduating seniors Anthony Salerno, Sal Ventrice, Michael Olsen, Jason Deodato and Team Captain Tommy Fitzgerald, provided a fine send-off for the seniors on January 20, with the Clippers crushing the squad from St. Dominics.
The very next day, the Clippers continued their dominance in the pool, as they trounced Staten Island powerhouse Monsignor Farrell at the College of Staten Island Aquatics Center.
