Auburn track & field senior Makanakaishe Charamba was named the SEC Men’s Runner of the Week Tuesday afternoon, after recording a time of 19.99 in the 200m at the Tom Jones Memorial in Gainesville, Florida.

Charamba posted a record-setting time and holds the only sub-20 second performance so far, this outdoor season. His time was just four hundredths shy of his school record time of 19.95.

With his first-place finish, Auburn men’s team ranks No. 12 in the latest U.S. Track & Field and Cross-Country Coaches Association poll.

The Tigers will be back in action Saturday, April 26 hosting the Tiger Track Classic at the Hutsell-Rosen Track.
