Mfantsipim have been a dominant force in the Cape Coast Super Zonals athletics competition, winning the last three editions (2020, 2023, 2024). A key contributor to their last two wins is Joseph Andoh Kwofie.
The school’s sports prefect currently holds the 100m (10.1 seconds) and 200m (20.3 seconds) after a brilliant showing in the 2024 edition, leading the oldest secondary school in Ghana to a sum total of 168 points.
He comes into this edition with confidence after easily beating his opponents in the Inter colleges competition a few days ago.
“I felt so excited [in 2024] because breaking that record is not easy. You have to try hard and go through a lot. It’s not that easy,” Andoh recounted the historic moment.
Kwofie now looks to take things a step higher at the Cape Coast stadium.
“I want to break my own record and set a new record and that will be there for about 50 years and above. I want to hit a sub 10 and if I get that maybe my [unborn] child will break the record”.
The Super zonals competition will take place on 27-28 February 2024 in Cape Coast and Kumasi.
