Emory University freshman Debora Adjibaba claimed University Athletic Association (UAA) titles in four events, setting new conference records in three, at the 2012 UAA Outdoor Track & Field Championships in Pittsburgh, PA last weekend. Adjibaba broke the conference record in the 100-meter dash, winning the event with a time of 12.17 seconds, the 13th-fastest time in Division III this season. She added an individual title in the 200-meter dash with an event-winning time of 25.44 seconds. Adjibaba was also a part of two conference-record setting relays, running the anchor leg of the Eagles’ 4x100-meter relay (47.17 seconds) and the leadoff leg of the 4x400-meter relay (3:53.57). The 4x100-meter relay’s time ranks as the third-fastest in school history and the fourth-best mark in Division III this season. Adjibaba scored 25 points for the Eagles at the meet, helping Emory win its third-consecutive UAA Outdoor Championship.
