15 Christian Brothers Academy Students Commit to Play Division 1, Ivy League

Congratulations to these student-athletes!

Fifteen senior student-athletes at Christian Brothers Academy in Lincroft formalized their commitments to Division 1 and Ivy League schools on Thursday. Students representing swimming, wrestling, track, cross country, baseball, basketball, lacrosse and crew participated in the ceremony held in the school’s library on Thursday.

“On behalf of CBA, I would like to express just how proud we all are of our exceptional student-athletes here,” said Vito Chiaravalloti, the school’s athletic director. “What’s most impressive is not that they are talented enough to continue their athletic careers, rather that they have placed a priority on their studies, giving themselves the opportunity to attend some of the best colleges in the nation. These young men truly embody what it means to be a student-athlete.”
