Biography

Powell on Sangobowale: “A two-sport student-athlete at Penn, Mike is the prototypical collegiate student-athlete.  Hard-working, disciplined, and extremely coachable, are a few of characteristics used to describe Mike.   He has improved dramatically in the discus, and hopes to be a key contributor in that event as well as the shot put in 2005.  He continues to get stronger and stronger in the weightroom which will hopefully correlate to further throws in the coming season.  Mike will take on a new role this year as he assumes leadership of the throwing crew that lost three seniors to graduation in 2004.  A defensive tackle on the football team Mike is enrolled in the College of Arts and Sciences as a cognitive science major.”
