Little Miami athletes, coaches honored after state championship season
Summary
At its June meeting the Little Miami Board of Education recognized coaches Jim and Lynn Brandt and the boys 4x400 relay team — Carson Cherry, Isaiah James, JQ Wayne and Ethan Greenwood — for winning the 2026 Ohio Division I state title and setting a new school record; Ryan Reynolds also was honored as state runner‑up in the 3,200 meters.
The Little Miami Board of Education opened its meeting by congratulating the district’s track and field program for a season of record performances and postseason success. "We congratulate Jim, Lynn, and the entire track and field program on an exceptional season," the chair said as the board called up the state‑champion relay team for photos.
Board members singled out the boys 4x400 relay for capturing the Ohio Division I state championship and setting a new school record of 3 minutes, 16 seconds. The relay team — Carson Cherry, Isaiah James, JQ Wayne and Ethan Greenwood — was recognized by name. The board also highlighted Ryan Reynolds for earning state runner‑up honors in the 3,200‑meter run.
Superintendent (speaker 4) framed the accomplishments as part of a broader trend of athletic growth, noting about 1,300 student‑athletes participated across 77 teams during the school year. The board invited the honorees to pose for photos in the lobby.
The recognitions were purely ceremonial; no board action was required. The board moved directly from the recognitions into routine meeting business.
