Emmanuel's Abdi Ibrahim was named the Great Northeast Athletic Conference Men's Cross Country Performer of the Week for the second-straight week. Ibrahim's most recent honor came on September 13th, after the junior won the 6th Annual Lt. Travis Fuller Invitational in Buzzards Bay, Massachusetts.

Ibrahim set a new course record at the Massachusetts Maritime meet, running the five mile race in 25:35. The East Boston, Mass. native picked up another individual win, finishing first out of the field of 87 total runners and leading Emmanuel to a team championship in the meet as well.

Ibrahim and the Saints will be back in action on Saturday, September 25th, competing at Franklin Park in the Codfish Bowl. The meet is scheduled to begin at 11:00am.
