East Texas A&M University track and field sprinter Ibrahim Fuseini has been named the Southland Conference Men’s Track Athlete of the Week on Wednesday.
Fuseini (Accra, Ghana) had an impressive performance last week in Lubbock at the Corky/Crofoot Shootout. He raced in two races and both times are tops in the Southland.
He started the day taking part in the 4×100 meter relay with a time of 38.98 seconds, which is a new school record, first in the Southland, and top 15 in the country. He also timed 10.03 seconds in the 100 meter dash, which is fastest in the SLC this year.
This is the second time this season that Fuseini has earned SLC Men’s Track Athlete of the Week award during the outdoor season. He is slated to compete for Ghana in the World Athletics Relay Championships this weekend in China. It is the ninth weekly honor for the Lions during the 2024-25 season.
The Lions ended their regular season in Lubbock last week and close out the 2024-25 season at the Southland Conference Championships next Thursday-Saturday in Houston.
