Rowan’s Jason Agyemang Named Thomas M. Gerrity Most Outstanding Athlete; NJAC Men’s Outdoor All-Conference Announced

PITMAN, NJ — Rowan University junior Jason Agyemang (North Plainfield, NJ/North Plainfield) has been selected as the NJAC’s Thomas M. Gerrity Most Outstanding Athlete to highlight the 2025 NJAC Men’s Outdoor Track & Field All-Conference Team.
 
Additionally, The College of New Jersey freshman Maxim Rychkov (Robbinsville, NJ/Robbinsville) was named Outstanding Track Athlete; Stockton University sophomore Ahmad Fogg (Egg Harbor Twp., NJ/Egg Harbor Twp.) was named Outstanding Field Athlete; and Rowan freshman Jamir Brown (Riverside, NJ/Riverside) was named Rookie of the Year. Rowan head coach Dustin Dimit and his staff were voted the Bill Fritz Coaching Staff of the Year by their peers.
 

All-Conference honors were determined by finish at the recent NJAC Outdoor Track & Field Championship and major awards were voted on by the league’s nine head coaches.
 
Agyemang swept the hurdles over the weekend, hitting personal bests and NCAA top-10 times in both the 110 and 400 hurdles events. He ran the second-fastest 110 hurdles time in NCAA Division III this season with a time of 13.74 seconds. That ranks as the third-fastest all-time in D3 history. His winning time of 52.69 seconds in the 400 hurdles ranks as the sixth-fastest in D3 this year. Agyemang was a Week 6 NJAC Track Athlete of the Week.
 
Rychkov completes the sweep of the indoor and outdoor Outstanding Track Athlete honors in just his rookie season. He swept the sprints, cracking 21 seconds in the 200 meters with a 20.98. That time is a personal best, TCNJ school record, and currently the fifth-fastest in NCAA Division III this season. He posted a winning time of 10.51 seconds in the 100 meters and currently sits 21^st nationally in that event. The two-time NJAC Rookie of the Week also ran a leg of the Lions’ 4×100 meter relay squad that posted a 41.77 for second place.
 
Fogg also sweeps the season honors as both the indoor and outdoor Outstanding Field Athlete. He won the long jump with a season-best 7.34 meter leap, which ranks eighth in D3 this season as he seeks a nationals qualification. He also posted a season-best mark of 14.54 meters in the triple jump, finishing third in a tough field as all three top placers were within the NCAA top 20. Fogg was a Week 5 NJAC Field Athlete of the Week honoree.
 
Brown adds to the sweeps, taking home the outdoor Rookie of the Year honor to add to his indoor top rookie honor. The freshman hurdles sensation clocked a 13.60 in the 110 hurdles preliminary, setting a new NCAA D3 record, conference meet record, and Rowan program record. That time was also the best by a freshman among all NCAA divisions this year. He came in under the old NJAC championship meet record of 13.64 that stood for nearly 25 years, set by Glassboro State’s Garry Moore in 1981. In addition to his top D3 time in the 110 hurdles, he also currently owns the #11 time in the 400 hurdles.
 
Dimit and his staff are named the Bill Fritz Coaching Staff of the Year for the tenth consecutive season as he guided Rowan to its tenth straight outdoor title. Their 2025 Profs garnered 10 event wins, nine second-place finishes, and 10 third-place finishes en route to 313 points, which included four podium sweeps. They guided two major award winners in Most Outstanding Athlete Jason Agyemang and Rookie of the Year Jamir Brown, coaching the duo to top all-time D3 times in the 110 hurdles.
