Ghanaian sprinter Isaac Botsio capped a stellar performance at the 2025 NCAA Division II Outdoor Track & Field Championships with a national title in the men’s 100m, clocking an impressive time of 9.94 seconds to finish first at the Pueblo ThunderBowl in Pueblo, Colorado.
The West Texas A&M junior’s time is the second-fastest in the school’s history and marks a significant milestone in his collegiate career.
His victory in the 100m was one of two national titles he claimed on the day.
Botsio also played a key role in West Texas A&M’s 4x100m relay team, anchoring the squad to victory alongside teammates Jace Lynch, Jerry Jakpa, and James Dadzie.
The quartet posted a winning time of 39.43 seconds, securing another national championship for the Buffaloes.
The wins contributed to a strong overall showing by West Texas A&M, who finished as runners-up in the team standings for the fifth consecutive season.
Botsio’s achievements headline a successful outing for the Buffaloes, who also saw strong performances from fellow Ghanaians Aziz Mohammed, who placed sixth in the 1,500m (3:50.93), and William Amponsah, who claimed his second national title of the weekend by winning the 5,000m in 14:26.23.
With two national titles to his name from the championships, Botsio concludes his junior year as one of the standout athletes in Division II sprinting.
