Miller Company, with the celebratory event being held at the Grand America Hotel in Salt Lake City.<\/p>

\u201cWe love to recognize people who are successful and working hard. We think they are aligned with our pioneering values at the Deseret News, and certainly these athletes qualify,\u201d said Deseret News publisher Burke Olsen.<\/p>

\u201c… The state of Utah really cares about our families, and we care about our young people. We care about seeing them excel and do their best. Parents and schools put a lot of money and energy into seeing their kids have the best opportunities available to them, and for us, (the awards are) a chance to recognize all of that hard work and achievement.\u201d<\/p>

In addition to the Miller Company, other top sponsors for the event were America First Credit Union, Wadsworth Construction and Minky Couture.<\/p>

\u201cYou think of all the things that lead you to be successful in life, it\u2019s discipline, it\u2019s hard work, it\u2019s dedication. These are all things that you learn in high school sports,\u201d said John Kimball, President of Business Operations for Real Salt Lake and Utah Royals FC. <\/p>

\u201cYou learn those things, and then you apply those for the rest of your life. This is one of the ways the Millers choose to give back to the community. They want to inspire these athletes to work hard, to be disciplined and to be committed, so that someday they can apply those things and be great contributors to the community.\u201d<\/p>

The night\u2019s honors included most outstanding athlete awards for each of Utah\u2019s 25 sanctioned sports, as well as male and female honors for the athletes and coaches of the year, who each received a $1,000 cash prize and gift basket courtesy of America First Credit Union.<\/p>

Herriman cross country and track standout Jackson Spencer was named Male Athlete of the Year, having gone undefeated during cross country season and setting a number of state records in each sport.<\/p>

The 2025-26 boys cross country national Gatorade Player of the Year, Spencer will continue his running career at BYU.<\/p>

\u201cEver since I got into the sport, I\u2019ve always wanted to be great, and I think (with this award) I\u2019ve achieved that, so it\u2019s like a dream come true,\u201d Spencer told the Deseret News. \u201cEvery day I just want to be the best that I can be, and I think I can use running as an outlet to channel that.\u201d<\/p>

Milika Satuala, a Bountiful High product now at the University of Utah, earned Female Athlete of the Year honors after capping her high school basketball career with an individual Ms. Basketball selection and third state championship.<\/p>

Satuala also excelled in volleyball, where she was a two-time First Team all-state talent, but chose to pursue college basketball with the Utes as a 4-star signee.<\/p>

\u201cIt really feels awesome just to see hard work pay off,\u201d Satuala told the Deseret News.<\/p>

\u201cI just feel so fortunate to have experienced all the opportunities I did in basketball and volleyball. All the coaches, all the tears, everything I have, I just feel so fortunate to have these opportunities. It\u2019s really been a blessing.\u201d<\/p>

Troy Norris of Panguitch High was selected as Male Coach of the Year, as his 34-year coaching career has come to a close following 46 combined state championships in track and volleyball.<\/p>

Corner Canyon\u2019s Mindy Ricks was the choice for Female Coach of the Year, leading the Chargers\u2019 girls volleyball squad to a 23-6 record and a 6A state championship.<\/p>
