KUALA LUMPUR – National women’s athlete Shereen Samson Vallabouy once again created a sensation when she set a new personal best en route to the gold medal in the 400m event at the Division II Track and Field Individual Championships in Michigan, USA today.

According to the results posted on the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) official website, Shereen,  who represented Winona State University, clocked 52.68s, bettering the time of 53.79s she set at the Indoor Track and Field Championships in Kansas, USA on March 12.

Cal Poly Polmona runner Ayana Field (53.44s) won the silver while Hanna Williams (53.49s) of Western Missouri  University the bronze.
