The Pima Community College track & field program gained more experience on its sprint team as it signed Dejanae Wilmore (Tucson Magnet HS).

Wilmore competed for Eastern New Mexico University this season as she set two personal-records during the Indoor season for the Greyhounds. She ran a 60 meter race in 8.05 seconds and finished a 200 meter race with a time of 27.19.
As a junior with the Badgers, Wilmore claimed three PR times in the 400 meter (1:06.61), 100 meter hurdles (20.61) and the 300 meter hurdles (47.68).
"Dejanae is a highly touted sprinter out of Tucson High and she's a four-year superstar that's going to add a lot of depth to our women's sprints team," Pima interim track & field head coach Chad Harrison said.
Wilmore has outdoor season personal-bests of 12.49 in the 100 meters and 25.62 in the 200 meters set in 2016.
