Giovani Mowatt (B.S. '15) ran for the Bison Cross Country, Indoor and Outdoor Track and Field teams.
While on the team, he became one of the most decorated distance runners in program history. He became a 12-time medalist (five gold, five silver and two bronze) and earned a placed on the All-MEAC Team all four years. Additionally, Mowatt was a NCAA Division I Regional Championship Qualifier in the 800-meters.
As a native of Silver Spring, Westmoreland, Jamaica, he competed for his native country in the 2012 Jamaican Olympic Trials, in which he was a Finalist in the 800m.
Mowatt was a star in the classroom as well. He graduated Magna Cum Laude with a bachelor's degree in Biology and a minor in Chemistry. He completed his master's degree after his time at Howard and passed his Board Exam. Currently, he is a Registered Clinical Dietitian (RD).
Mowatt works right behind Howard at Medstar National Rehabilitation Hospital as a Lead Dietitian. Being so close, he voluntarily assists with the Howard University Cross Country and Track and Field Team in his spare time.
