Kaba Honored as USTFCCCA National Athlete of the Week

New Orleans, LA—The U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association has named Delaware County Community College's Fatumata Kaba NJCAA Division III Women's National Athlete of the Week in collegiate track and field.
The USTFCCCA announced Kaba's accolade on April 28, noting that:
Fatumata Kaba had PRs in three events at the Miller Sports Construction Blue Jay Tune-Up in Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania, on Saturday.
But only one of those put her in select territory among NJCAA DIII athletes, as her best triple jump of 11.30m (37-1) made her just the third known DIII female to surpass 37 feet in the event. One of the others also hailed from Delaware County as Kaba actually tied for a share of the Phantom school record set in 2019 by Taneira Bowman.
Only the 11.33m (37-2¼) by Serena Prince of Prince George's (Md.) CC in 2013 is known to be further all-time among NJCAA DIII athletes. Kaba's other PRs in the meet were in the long jump (5.28m/17-4) and 100 (13.20).
