Miller returns to UNH after a stellar senior season on the court. In 2014-15, he was instrumental in one of the program's most successful seasons. Miller averaged 9.9 points per game, which ranked third on the team, while starting in 16 of 29 games played.
The America East All-Conference Third Team member transferred to UNH from Seton Hill University prior to the 2012-13 season although he was unable to play that season due to NCAA transfer regulations. A year later, injuries sidelined him for the entire 2013-14 campaign.
However, Miller was healthy and eligible to play in 2014-15. He led the America East in 3-point field goal percentage with a 48.1 clip from beyond the arc. His most memorable performance with the 'Cats was his highlight-reel shooting effort on Senior Night against the University of Maine (Feb. 28). Miller drained six 3-pointers and scored a season-high 24 points to lift UNH to a 65-56 victory.
His accurate outside shooting played a critical role in propelling UNH's postseason run. New Hampshire defeated the University of Hartford at home in the quarterfinals before traveling to the University at Albany where they fell 60-58. The team was then invited to play at the CollegeInsider.com Tournament against New Jersey Institute of Technology, the team's first national tournament in program history. Overall, New Hampshire put together a 19-win season, tying the 1994-95 campaign for the most victories in program history, including 12 wins at Lundholm Gymnasium to set a new record.
New Hampshire will open the season at home against Lyndon State College on Friday, Nov. 13 (7:30 p.m.). For tickets this season, call the box office at 603-862-4000 ext. 5 or click HERE.
