Cloud County Community College sophomore sprinter Maimuna Jallow has been named the NJCAA Women's Track & Field Indoor Athlete of the Week.

The recognition marks Jallow's second national award of the week. Jallow, a native of Sare-Futa, Gambia, was named the NJCAA Women's National Athlete of the Week by the United States Track and Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) on Monday, February 9. A day later, she was recognized as the Kansas Jayhawk Community College Conference (KJCCC) Women's Track Athlete of the Week. Jallow has been named the conference indoor track athlete of the week three times this season.

On Friday, February 6, Jallow was named the Most Valuable Female Performer at the University of Nebraska's Frank Sevigne Husker Invitational. Jallow won the 60M Dash in a national qualifying time of 7.29, lowering her seasonal best with the No. 7 all-time performance in NJCAA. The following day, Jallow claimed another win, taking the 200M Dash in a national qualifying time of 23.29 – again rating as the No. 7 NJCAA performance all-time. Less than three hours later, Jallow joined sophomore Tahlia Lienert and freshmen Makaiah Hitchman and Alexis Smith on the 4x400M Relay team that finished second overall in a time of 3:52.80. Jallow ran a 54.91-second split on the second leg of the relay, which was her first 400M of any kind this year. Last year Jallow had a 54.54 lead-off leg to kick-start Cloud County to an NJCAA Indoor title in the 4x400.

Jallow and the T-Birds are set to compete at the Washburn University Ichabod Invitational on Friday, February 13 and Saturday, February 14 at the Sneed Indoor Athletic Facility in Topeka, Kansas.
