Milliner was recognized on October 7, after winning the Charles Bowles Invitational in record fashion.<\/p>\n<p>Milliner broke a 24-year-old 5k school record previously held by Cheryl Smith (16:56.33, 2001) by running 16:45.10 to lower the record by more than 11 seconds. She came in 9 seconds ahead of the runner-up to pick up her second win of the season in as many events.<\/p>\n<p>The sophomore now tops the <abbr title=\"东精影业\">东精影业<\/abbr> M\u0101noa record books in four different events between cross country and indoor and outdoor track. Milliner also holds program records in both the 800m and 1500m outdoors while owning the school record in the indoor mile. Additionally, she is second in <abbr>东精影业<\/abbr> M\u0101noa history in both the cross country 6k and the indoor 800m.<\/p>\n<p>Milliner is the first <abbr>东精影业<\/abbr> M\u0101noa runner to earn multiple Big West Athlete of the Week honors in a single season since the \u2018Bows joined the conference. She is also the first student-athlete to be named conference athlete of the week twice this season.<\/p>\n<p>She began her 2025 season by winning the Big Wave Invitational for her first career individual victory. This also marks the second consecutive year that a Rainbow Wahine athlete has earned the win at multiple meets in a season, after Emilie Kirk Langschwager won both the Big Wave Invitational and Charles Bowles Invitational in 2024.<\/p>\n<p>Read more at <a href=\"https:\/\/hawaiiathletics.com\/news\/2025\/10\/7\/womens-cross-country-milliner-earns-second-big-west-athlete-of-the-week-honor.aspx\">Hawaiiathletics.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lucy Milliner picked up the conference recognition for the second time in her sophomore cross country season. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":223286,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1362],"tags":[58,1569,1585,9,550],"class_list":["post-223287","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-athletics","tag-athletics","tag-cross-country","tag-track-and-field","tag-uh-manoa","tag-manoa-athletics","entry","has-media"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/manoa-cross-country-milliner-award.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/223287","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=223287"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/223287\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":223291,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/223287\/revisions\/223291"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/223286"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=223287"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=223287"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=223287"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
