Deb Runkle-Wilkins

Deb graduated in 1975 from Brandon Valley High School.

As a student manager for the girls basketball and track and field teams she was always the teams’ most loyal and enthusiastic supporter.  As many of her classmates, coaches, and Lynx fans attest, she is proof that one does not have to be “on the team” to be a “part” of the team.  Deb’s commitment to the Lynx extended to her involvement in band, choir, Girls State, and other extra-curricular activities.  Her artistic touch added her love fto BV when she painted the Lynx mural on the former stadium.

After graduating from Brandon Valley, she took her love of athletics to the next level by becoming a Certified Athletic Trainer.  She taught and coached at the high school level before taking her talents to the collegiate level as a trainer and administrator.

Deb’s nominating letter stressed how her Brandon Valley education and participation was a huge factor in her career decision to be involved in athletics.
