NEW ORLEANS – Texas A&M track & field's Auhmad Robinson was named USTFCCCA Men's National Athlete of the Week for his school-record performance at the McFerrin-12 Degree Invitational, the organization announced Monday.
Â
Robinson put the nation on notice in his first action of the 2025 season, as he dominated the men's 300m at the second annual McFerrin-12 Degree Invitational. The junior ran in the final heat of the event, pulling away from the competition with a time of 32.34 which broke the A&M school record.
Â
The Spring, Texas, native also wrote his name in the 300m collegiate history books, as his time ranks him as the No. 3 all-time collegiate performer in the event and is the fourth-fastest time run by a collegiate athlete.
Â
Doubling down on his weekend's success, he helped the Maroon & White close the meet on top, as he and the 4x400m relay quartet also including DeMarco Escobar, Cutler Zamzow and Kimar Farquharson brought home A&M's 12th win of the meet. The group crossed the line in 3:05.80 which leads the nation after the opening weeks action.
Â
Robinson and the Aggies return to action this weekend, as they head to the Corky Classic in Lubbock, Texas, which runs from Jan. 17-18.
