For the second consecutive year, Ndhlovu — who runs for the University of North Carolina at Pembroke team — became the Peach Belt Conference Champion in record fashion as he covered the 8km course in a time of 24:20,39 and set a new PBC mark with a 1:15 margin.

Ndhlovu was named PBC Runner of the Year for the second year in a row, garnered a spot on the first-team all-PBC and on the all-sportsmanship team.

The World Wide Scholarships Academy product becomes the fourth PBC runner in league history to win back-to-back conference individual titles.
