Hisham Greiss

Hisham Fouad Greiss (Arabic: هشام فؤاد جريس‎‎) is a retired male track and field athlete from Egypt, one of only a few Egyptian athletes to have won gold medals at the African athletic events. Along with his colleagues Nagui Asaad, Hassan Ahmed Hamad and Mohamed Naguib Hamed, Greiss formed one of the strongest Egyptian teams in throw events.
He was twice a winner at the African Championships in Athletics (1979, 1982) and was twice gold medallist at the East and Central African Championships in Athletics (1981, 1982).
Greiss did not compete in the 1976 or 1980 Summer Olympic Games due to boycotts surrounding the games.
