The Nazareth Area High School swim and dive team faced Central Catholic High School last night, and both teams switched up their school colors for a good cause.

The "Swim for Pink Meet" featured pink swimming caps and pink speedos.  In addition, donations for the American Cancer Society were collected.

The Nazareth team dedicated the “Swim for Pink Meet” to Pam Amato, a guidance counselor at the high school and the wife of Rosario Amato, the school’s athletic director.  She is courageously battling cancer.

Thank God for dedicated and concerned young people! The youth today often get a bad rap, but they often do things for worthy causes. Following in the footsteps of the late, great vaudeville man, Buddy Ebsen, they are raising money for a worthy cause. Unfortunately, Buddy is no longer alive to contribute to the fight against cancer, but Kudos to the swimmers and coaching staff at Nazareth for keeping the fight alive. This horrible disease MUST be beaten!
