HISTORY MADE: BROOKE MILLER BECOMES WARM SPRINGS MIDDLE SCHOOL'S FIRST-EVER PVL CROSS COUNTRY CHAMPION
Warm Springs Middle School proudly celebrates a historic achievement by 8th grader Brooke Miller, who has etched her name into the record books with an incredible championship performance.
Just days after capturing the 2026 MAC Conference Individual Championship, Brooke traveled to Frankfort and delivered another dominant performance at the 2026 Potomac Valley Conference Championships, winning the 2-mile race in a time of 13:08.8. In doing so, she became the first-ever Warm Springs Middle School Potomac Valley League Cross Country Champion. With PVL Cross Country only in its second year of existence, Brooke's accomplishment is a milestone that will forever be part of Warm Springs Middle School athletic history.
Brooke's championship run highlighted a tremendous day for the Lady Wolves, as the team battled against some of the area's top competition to earn a 2nd-place team finish in the conference championship meet.
The Lady Wolves were led by:
Brooke Miller – 1st Place Overall, PVL Champion (13:08.8)
Henley Forney – 10th Place
Reagan Schmidt – 12th Place
Harper Thompson – 13th Place
Korie Avey – 17th Place
Additional team members competing for Warm Springs included:
McKenna Saville - 22nd place
Regan Byrne - 29th place
Brooke's back-to-back championship performances, combined with the Lady Wolves' runner-up finish, reflect the dedication, determination, and relentless work ethic that define our cross country program.
Congratulations to Brooke Miller on making Warm Springs Middle School history and to the entire Lady Wolves Cross Country Team on an outstanding season and a remarkable performance at the Potomac Valley Conference Championships.
Once a champion. Today, a history maker.
