“Mia Sirois showed remarkable perseverance this year. To miss her entire cross country season and then post times like she did this spring is a stellar achievement. Millions of prep girls have run the 3,200 over the years; to be ranked second in history is applause-worthy.”

Athletic Excellence

The 5-foot-5 junior distance talent set a state record in the 3200-meter run at the Class 3A state meet this past season, clocking a 9:44.16, which ranked No. 1 nationally among prep girls competitors in 2026 and No. 2 all-time. Sirois, who missed last fall’s cross country season with an injury, also won the 5000-meter run at the USATF Under-20 Championships, setting a meet record with a time of 15:46.74 that ranked No. 1 nationally and No. 6 all-time. She earned a silver medal at the Brooks PR Invitational in the 2-mile run earlier this month with a time of 9:51.68, which ranked No. 4 nationally.

Academic Achievement

Sirois has maintained a weighted 4.14 GPA in the classroom. She has made a verbal commitment to run on scholarship at the University of Notre Dame beginning in the fall of 2027.

Exemplary Character

An avid baker, Sirois started her own business selling baked goods. A three-year member of Barrington High’s student government, she has volunteered locally with Barrington High’s Dance Marathon, which raised money for Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago. She has donated her time to multiple community service initiatives through her church.
