Coach Jade Brown of Booker T. Washington High School has been named the 2026 Florida Dairy Farmers Girls’ Basketball Coach of the Year following a final round of voting by a statewide panel of high school coaches and media representatives.

Brown led her squad to a 24-3 record and the Class 5A state title. In 14 years at Washington, Brown has posted a 214-110 record, including a 68-11 mark over the past three seasons. Brown, who was earlier named the Class 5A Coach-of-the-Year, totaled 89 points to finish ahead of Class 7A COY Daniela Barrios of Doral Academy with 59 points and Class 2A COY Ochiel Swaby of Miami Country Day (53).

The Florida Dairy Farmers High School Sports Awards program exemplifies Florida Dairy Farmers' commitment to the state's youth. This is the 34th year of these unique awards as we honor the state's top athletes and coaches in FHSAA sanctioned and recognized sports. The program also emphasizes to young people the importance of keeping dairy products a primary part of their diet in their overall nutrition plan.

Coach Brown joins Booker T. Washington’s Ronnie Bond as the only Pensacola-area coaches to win this award.
