What makes Ella Onojuvwevwo’s run this weekend so impressive 👇 The 21-year-old LSU star clocked an incredible time of 49.59 seconds in the women’s 400m at the Battle on the Bayou. This performance brings her closer to 🇳🇬’s all-time top 3. Nigeria, which has a rich history in the one-lap event, was one of the strongest nations during the 1990s, as Falilat Ogunkoya and Fatima Yusuf reached the 400m Olympic final in Atlanta and won a silver medal in the 4x400m relay. Ella, now the fastest Nigerian runner of the 21st century, will aim to break Ogunkoya’s national record of 49.10s ⚡️ 📸 @LSUTrackField & Mark Sandten


Finished strong in Irvine 💪 #GoHighlanders
