CSI junior Nicholas Defonte is now the back-to-back CSI Male Athlete of the Week for February 5, on the heels of a tremendous CUNYAC Championship Meet that saw him take Co-MVP honors and the conference's Performer of the Year award as well.  Defonte was a perfect three-for-three in individual events at the meet which took place Friday through Sunday at Lehman College.  Defonte won in the 500-yard Freestyle (5:06.66), 200-yard Freestyle (1:49.71), and 200-yard Backstroke (2:00.46) and was a part of two medal winning relay teams as well.
