Azeem out of 100m but helps Auburn clock second-fastest in relay
KUALA LUMPUR: Azeem Fahmi fell short in the NCAA men's 100m quarter-finals but bounced back in style as part of Auburn University's 4x100m relay team in Jacksonville, Florida, on Friday. The 21-year-old clocked 10.20s to finish sixth in Heat One of the 100m quarter-finals, placing 16th overall out of 24 competitors - outside the top 12 needed to progress to the semi-finals next week. However, Azeem made amends in the relay, teaming up with Kayinsola Ajani, Dario Matau and Makanakaishe Charamba to post the second-fastest time of 38.51 and seal a place in the next round in Eugene.
