OLYMPIC QUALIFICATION FOR NIGERIA'S Women's 4x400m! What a fabulous anchor leg from Patience Okon-George to overhaul Yinka Ajayi's lead (Team B), powering Nigeria to an Olympic qualification (13th in the Top List), clocking an SB of 3:26.83 #LagosOpen

And that's the final competition of a long and trying, but ultimately successful 2020-21 season.

A tremendous round of applause is owed to our student-athletes, coaches and staff for overcoming the challenges this year presented to return to competition.
