By Terry Thomas

The long wait is finally over as the 2019-2020 version of the Chester Clippers opens their season on Saturday, December 7th at the Fred Pickett Gymnasium. The Clippers will face off against the J.P. McCaskey Red Tornadoes in the featured contest of the 7th Annual Fred Pickett Classic. The Clippers are scheduled to tip-off at 8:30 p.m.

The Clippers will rely on returning seniors Zahmir Carroll, Rahmee Gilbert and Akeem Taylor Jr as well as juniors Fareed Burton Jr and Karell Watkins. Joining these veterans will be seniors Faheem Berry, Jayquan Brown, J'shon Lawler and Jahmaige Womack. After skipping his junior to focus on a successful season on both the gridiron and the track, senior Malik Langley will return to the hardwood. Junior Lenny Camacho completes the roster.

The Clippers will be completing in Class 6A, once again returning to the highest classification in the PIAA. They expect to be aggressive both offensively and defensively in defense of the their Del Val Championship and in pursuit of their first District and State Championship in the new classification.
