Ghana’s Aziz Mohammed made history in the men’s 1,500m, breaking a 47 year old West Texas A&M school record, to claim victory in the Bryan Clay Invitational.
The former University of Ghana student clocked a time of 3:40.29 seconds, shaving about 4 seconds off the previous mark was held by Joseph Kemel (3:44.20) back in 1978.
Mohammed’s performance continues from where he left off last year, winning the 800m and 1500m at the Lone Star Conference Championships.
His achievement is the latest in a series of positive results for Ghanaian athletes abroad, after Abigail Abugire also broke her own West Texas A&M school record in the women’s 800m, with a time of 2:04.81 seconds also at the Bryan Clay Invitational.
