Track & Field: Leader of the Pack

A handful of Idaho track and field athletes will travel to Bozeman next week to compete in the Big Sky Indoor Championships.

For senior sprinter Ben Ayesu-Attah, the journey to reach this event has been anything but easy.

Last season, Ayesu-Attah was sidelined with Achilles tendinitis, a common injury for runners who increase the intensity of their runs.

“It hindered my performance and what I was able to do last year,” Ayesu-Attah said. “Since then, I wanted to be able to focus on being good for the whole season so I can compete better every time I race.
