Bray to Fight Irish National Champion

Share

Heavyweight boxer John Bray of Van Nuys will face Irish national champion Sean O’Reagan at Caesars Atlantic City tonight as part of the U.S.-Ireland amateur dual meet.

Bray, 18, was selected for the U. S. team as a result of his performance earlier this month at a training camp at the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colo.

This is the second international competition for Bray, a 1988 graduate of Van Nuys High. Last year he split two bouts on a Scandinavian tour.

The 10-bout dual meet will be televised by cable station TBS at 3:05 p.m. Saturday.

Jamal Swinton of Montclair Prep has signed a letter of intent to play football next season at Colgate.

The 5-foot-10, 180-pound defensive back intercepted three passes and gained 348 yards as a running back last fall.
