Ghana’s Men’s 4×100 Relay Team is set to compete at the Penn Relays in Pennsylvania in the United States of America as it attempts to secure a spot in the 2024 Olympic Games.
This year’s Penn Relays commenced on April 25 and is set to conclude on Saturday, April 27 with Ghana in line to qualify to the Paris Olympics.
According to Ghana Athletics, Ghana’s Men’s Relay Team will have Joseph Paul Amoah, Isaac Botsio, Barnabas Aggerh, Ibrahim Fuseini and Joseph Oduro Manu.
Benjamin Azamati is a notable absentee from the team considering he has been an ever present member of the team since competing at the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo, Japan.
Azamati was also part of the Ghana Team that finished second at the 2023 Africa Games missing out on a gold medal to Nigeria. Solomon Hammond and Edwin Gadayi were part of the Africa Games team.
Fuseini and Amoah finished fourth and first in the Men’s 200 Metres at the 2023 Africa Games respectively. Despite winning a record haul of medals in its history competing at the tournament, Ghana failed to secure a spot at this year’s Olympics.
