National Record holder, Ezekiel Nathaniel competed in the men’s 400m hurdles final the NCAA Championships in Austin, Texas, getting his team’s highest placement on track so far as he finished 3rd with a time of 48.54s!
He was one of the favourite leading up to the competition and he held his own against the quality field that included winner Chris Robinson in a new Personal Best (PB) of 48.12s and Corde Long in 48.53s.
