Stephan Louw

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Stephan Louw (born 26 February 1975) is a Namibian long jumper.

At the 2001 Summer Universiade he won the silver medal in long jump and participated in 4 x 100 metres relay. The Namibian relay team, which consisted of Louw, Sherwin Vries, Thobias Akwenye and Benedictus Botha, finished fourth in a new Namibian record of 39.48 seconds.[1] The same year Louw competed at the World Championships, without reaching the final round. He also competed at the 2000 Summer Olympics, but all his jumps were invalid.

His personal best jump was 8,24 metres, achieved in January 2008 in Johannesburg. This is the current Namibian record.[2]
