Last year, when the Barnegat boys swim team competed inside the mammoth facility at Gloucester Institute of Technology, Haddonfield made sure the Bengals’ first time in the NJSIAA South Jersey Group C semifinals wasn’t a pleasant endeavor.

On Feb. 14, the Bengals’ first time in a section championship meet wasn’t quite as big a downer. Still, Oakcrest did enough damage in the freestyle events and Barnegat couldn’t keep pace.
