In a contest that featured more misses than one would expect, Cathedral's Xavier Williams wowed the crowd, slamming home three perfect score dunks to win the Slam Dunk Contest at the San Diego Senior All-Star Game on Friday.

Williams, a 6'4" guard, was the only of the five competitors to complete each of his dunks on the first attempt.

San Dieguito's Sean McDonnell was the only other contestant to earn a perfect score, after he jumped over a member of the crowd for the one-handed throwdown.
