When the nation's fastest youth Eric Goloe first entered Prempeh 2 years ago, his best time was about 11.4 secs; now he runs a best of 10.4 secs (thanks to the outstanding coaching of sports master Mr. Lartey). If this is a pattern to go by, then in another 2 years when the boy turns 18, he could fall down to 9.4 secs and challenge for Olympic gold medal, which will be a monumental achievement for Prempeh. If this were to happen, it would bring tremendous pride to all Amanfoo around the world. So it does not take a rocket scientist to understand that what the boy is doing on campus could bring honour to the alma mater.

In fact, producing an Olympian is a very monumental achievement. The University of Florida, for example, is renowned for their truly outstanding achievement in the Olympic Games. That is why they list their Olympic history of acheivements and their incredible list of Olympians on their website as a point of pride for the whole world to see. All the prestigious universities around the world brag about their Olympic achievements!

This is what Mr. Atiemo said to Goloe this week:

"Wotiri awu (you are such a blockhead), you have no aim. Stop this running business and learn. Did your father bring you to school to run? Boy you will never amount to anything if you continue to run for this school."
