Mohammed El Youssfi was named the National Men’s Track Athlete of the Year for the 2025 NJCAA Division I Outdoor Track & Field season. El Youssfi, who hails from Morocco, swept the 5000 and 10,000 meters in dominant fashion at the 2025 NJCAA Division I Outdoor Track & Field Championships. After missing most of the outdoor season with injury, he won the 10,000 on Thursday evening, bolting to an early lead and running alone to break a 38-year-old NJCAA record in 28:32.04 while winning by more than a minute. He returned two days later to claim the 5000 in 13:56.82, breaking the meet record by nearly 10 seconds in winning by over 18 seconds while becoming No. 3 all-time in NJCAA history.
