Athletic Excellence

The 5-foot-8, 140-pound senior recorded a season-best time of 1:51.10 in the 800-meter run this past winter, which ranked as the nation’s No. 1 performance among prep competitors during the 2020 indoor season. Miller also ran a leg on the 4x400 relay quartet that won the Music City High School Indoor Invitational in 3:19.10, the fourth-fastest prep clocking this past winter. Ranked as the nation’s No. 10 recruit in the Class of 2020 by MileSplit, he lost virtually all of his junior season to a hamstring injury, but won state outdoor championships in the 800 and 1600 as a sophomore, also capturing the 800 title at the 2018 Brooks PR Invitational.
