Article published on Wednesday, Jan. 17, 2007
LARGO – Brothers Jeremiah and Adam Miller, recently returned from Cancun, Mexico, as grand champions in the Cancun Open International Karate Championships.

Only 12 competitors from the U.S. competed in the event. Other countries represented were Mexico, Colombia, Venezuela, Guatemala, Canada and some of the islands.

Jeremiah Miller won all five of his individual 14- to 15-year-old black belt divisions. He then went on to win the grand championship and finally the overall championship in weapons for the age groups 14 to 17 doing his traditional sword maneuvers. Jeremiah recently received his second-degree black belt in martial arts.

Adam Miller won all eight of his 12- to 13-year-old black belt divisions and won grand champion for the 13-and-under Xtreme forms division. He also was the champion in his fighting divisions.

The Miller brothers are part of the Sidekick International Competition Team coached by world champion master John Chung. The boys train at Jim Graden’s Karate in Seminole and also train privately with Sensei Daniel Sterling from Team Paul Mitchell. Both are national and world champions in forms, weapons and sparring.

The boys attend Seminole High and Seminole Middle schools where they are on the honor roll or principal’s list. They are the sons of David and Kathy Miller of Largo.
