The NJIT men's swimming and diving program will host its first-ever collegiate meet in the Wellness and Events Center (WEC) Natatorium Saturday, Jan. 27 at 11 a.m. when the Highlanders host the Hawks from Monmouth.
Opening Ceremony and Senior Recognition will begin at 10:45 a.m. on the pool deck.
Saturday will mark the first home meet outside the Fleisher Athletic Center for the NJIT men's swimming and diving program, since Nov. 10, 2017, when the Highlanders defeated visiting St. Francis Brooklyn and Manhattan.
"We are beyond excited and grateful to move into our new Natatorium this upcoming weekend," head coach Michael Lawson commented. "This facility has been in the works for many years and is a testament to the hard work of our past and current student-athletes and NJIT family. It is one of the best Mid-Major Division I Facilities to come online and we are looking forward to some fast swims and spectacular diving this Saturday."
