The 2025 Central Region Schools & Colleges Sports Association Super-Zonal Championships erupted into a frenzy of cheers and excitement on February 27 as Mfantsipim School’s boys’ 4x200m relay team clinched a stunning victory in the final race.

Leading the charge was none other than sprint sensation Joseph Andoh Kwofie, whose electrifying performance not only secured the win for the Kotokraba boys but also cemented his reputation as a rising star in Ghanaian athletics.

The race, held at the vibrant Cape Coast Sports Stadium, was a showcase of speed and teamwork, but it was Kwofie’s anchor leg that stole the spotlight.

As the baton hit his hand, the crowd erupted, sensing something special was about to unfold. With his trademark explosive strides, Kwofie surged ahead, pulling away from the competition with a ferocity that left no doubt about the outcome.

Crossing the finish line, he capped the triumph with a bold celebration, channeling Cristiano Ronaldo’s iconic “SIUUUU” leap, much to the delight of the roaring spectators.

Mfantsipim’s victory in the 4x200m final was a testament to their depth and discipline, but Kwofie’s contribution was the undeniable highlight.

The team’s seamless baton exchanges and relentless pace set the tone, but it was Kwofie’s closing sprint that sealed the deal, leaving rivals from schools like St. Augustine’s College and Adisadel College in the dust. Post-race, the charismatic sprinter didn’t hold back, declaring,

“There’s no one in Central Region who is faster than me.” The statement, dripping with confidence, sent a ripple of excitement through the stands and sparked chatter among fans and foes alike. Kwofie’s dominance at the 2025 Super Zonals is hardly a surprise to those who’ve followed his meteoric rise.

Already the holder of the Central Region’s 100m and 200m records—clocking a blistering 10.02 seconds and 20.8 seconds, respectively—the Mfantsipim star has been rewriting the record books since his first year. Earlier in the day, he breezed to victory in the 200m final with a time of 21.31 seconds, further solidifying his claim as the region’s premier sprinter.

His performance in the 4x200m only added to the legend, proving he’s not just a solo act but a team player who thrives under pressure.

The Kotokraba boys’ triumph was a collective effort, with Kwofie quick to praise his teammates. “We’ve been working hard together,” he said, catching his breath after the race.

“The handoffs were perfect, and everyone gave their all. I just had to finish what they started.” Coach Kwame Appiah, beaming with pride, hailed the team’s chemistry, noting, “Joseph is our spark, but this win belongs to all of them. They ran like champions.”

For Mfantsipim, a school with a storied athletic tradition, the 4x200m win is another feather in their cap as they aim to dominate the Super-Zonals leaderboard.
