Casa de Campo editor makes swimming top 10

The editor of Casa de Campo News in La Romana has retained his Top 10 World Ranking for Masters Swimming. Danilo Vicioso made the top 10 in the 45- to-49 age group, according to the FINA (the International Swimming Federation) that governs world amateur swimming. Despite having an off year, Vicioso still managed to get into the rankings with a 6th in the 200-meter backstroke; 7th in the 200-meter butterfly and 10th in the 200-meter individual medley (all four strokes). He still is the only Dominican on the list.

He says he is training for the two main challenges ahead this year: the PanAm Masters in Veracruz, Mexico and the South American Championships in Mar del Plata, Argentina.
