"That jump is a tremendous way to start his season," Southeast coach Eric Crumpecker said in a press release. "It should easily get him into indoor nationals."
Miller competed at the NCAA Outdoor Championships the past two seasons, and won the high jump and finished second in the triple jump at last year's OVC indoor championships.
The Redhawks will compete at the Indiana Relays this weekend.
