EUGENE, Ore. – For the second-straight year, Joseph Fahnbulleh will race in the finals at a global track and field meet.
A year after running in the finals of the 200 meters at the Tokyo Olympics, the Liberian is headed to the finals of the World Championships in Eugene.
Fahnbulleh was second in his heat, crossing the line in 19.92 and earning an automatic berth into the finals.
The Hopkins, Minn. native will line up with some of the best athletes in the world on Thursday evening in search of his first global medal.
