Tom Nawrot of East Brunswick, a senior at The College of New Jersey, won the 100-backstroke race in 52.38 as the men's and women's swimming and diving teams defeated their hosts, the Profs of Rowan University, recently to earn the 2008-09 New Jersey Athletic Conference Championship in both sports. The 2008-09 season marked the return of swimming and diving as a league sport. TCNJ's men's team added the 173-113 win to improve to 10-1 on the year and also a perfect 4-0 in the NJAC. With their win, the Lions earned their third NJAC title and staked their claim to the first NJAC men's swimming championship since the sport was suspended following the 1994-95 championship.
