Boys Swim win Davenport Title

For the first time since 2017, the CHS Boys Swim team has won the Hockomock League Davenport Championship.  The title was secured last night as the Bulldogs improved to 6-0 this season with a great win over Oliver Ames. 90-57.

Coach Cavanaugh praised her entire team but highlighted the following-

2024-25 Hockomock Davenport Champions!

We had quite a few talented new freshmen added to our team this year.  Among them were Ronin Ricks, Maddox Carbone, Neil Ericson, Brendan Holloran, Elmustafa Kosta and Ben Caccioppo. Ronin and Maddox made the biggest splash in their debut season.

Some other underclassmen who contributed to the Davenport Championship were Tim Tseng, Aidan Pham, Ryan Hickey, Alvin Neih, Nick Murphy, Minh Hong, Jayden He, Maris Veidis, Mahn Vu and Ben Nguyen.

Many senior members of the team were critical to the team's success as well. Devin Townsend graduates as a CHS swimmer who could not swim when he first joined the team. He has served as an inspiration to our team for kindness, team spirit and being the first in the pool for each practice. Ben Howe and Ali Kosta- team captains have been great role models and great leaders as well as exceptional swimmers. 

A big shout out to the Girls Swim team as well. They came up just short in their quest to win a 6th straight Davenport Title of their own. Four girls have qualified for the upcoming sectional and state meets- Annie McLean, Caitlin Reynolds, Julianne Gilchrist, and Amy Murphy.
