As a show of support for our local community high school sports, Delta Technical College (DTC)’s Ridgeland campus is proud to be an official sponsor of the WJMI Athlete of the Week!
Athletes from metro-area high schools will be chosen based on their overall athletic performance that week. The Athlete of the Week winners will receive on-air recognition on WJMI and will be added to a drawing.
At the end of the 2021-2022 promotion, which runs from August 2021-May 2022, a drawing will be held from all the winners. The winner of the drawing will receive $500 cash prize to be donated to their high school on behalf of DTC!
Congratulations to the winners!
