Going almost unnoticed in a country that craves football, basketball, and volleyball, Seidu Ajanako has quietly put together an impressive season of volleyball for his Park University team. Impressively, in his very first year at the university, Seidu leads the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA)--the national governing body for approximately 350 small-college athletics programs in the United States--in kills, what in old-time Ghana volleyball was referred to as spikes or smashes. As the link (http://home.earthlink.net/~bwamelink/naia/natstat.html) and tables below indicate, Seidu also stands in eight place in service aces.
