NORWICH - The Norwich varsity boys’ swimming and diving team moved to 0-6 on the season after a 92-56 loss against Johnson City.

“Our team record is 0-6, but the swimmers have been working to improve their times from last year to get
ready for sectionals,” said Norwich Head Coach Kevin Diefenbacher. “So far this year, our swimmers have had 25 personal best times through the 8 meets they have been to.”
