MOSCOW, Idaho -- The University of Idaho Track & Field/Cross Country program is thrilled to announce Adie Wimer as a future Vandal. This fourth-generation Vandal will make a splash in the women's sprints. 

Wimer has been excelling on the track since middle school when she set the national record in the 400 meters and she hasn't stopped breaking records since. The 400-meter and sprint medley relay school record holder in the event at Columbia High School in Nampa, she set her personal best in the 400-meter distance at the Idaho State District 3-4A Championship this past spring at 57.65 seconds qualifying for the Idaho state championship meet. 

Wimer also competed in and set a personal best in the 200 meters at 25.4 seconds at the District championships and advanced to the state meet in the half-lap race as well as the 400 meters. She went on to finish as the runner-up at the Idaho State 4-5A Championships narrowly missing her PR by .02 seconds. 

For these tremendous efforts, Wimer was named the MVP of her team in 2022. She has competed at the national level and in 2021 won the AAU West Coach National championship in the 400 meters. 

A standout in academics as well as athletics, Wimer maintains a 4.0 GPA and is a member of the Health Occupations of America (HOSA) where she is a multi-time place winner at the state competition.

"It is exciting to have in-state talent like Adie joining the Vandal Family," Idaho Director of Track & Field/Cross Country Tim Cawley said. "She has great speed on the track and is an excellent student as well."
