Scoop Miller joined the Defiance College coaching staff prior to the 2009 campaign and is in his fourth year with the Purple and Gold coaching staff in 2011-2012.

Miller brings additional coaching experience to the DC dugout, after spending 10 seasons as the head baseball coach at Archbold High. During his time at Archbold, Miller guided the Blue Streaks to a 190-69 record on the diamond, while leading them to the 2005 Division III Ohio State Championship. Miller also piled up nine sectional championships, four Northwest Ohio Athletic League titles, three district championships and one regional crown.

During his time as a high school baseball coach, Miller garnered five Coach-of-the-Year honors, was named a 2004 State All-Star Coach and won the Ohio High School Athletic Association Sportsmanship, Ethics and Integrity Award in 2008.

The 1984 graduate of Goshen College tossed the first no-hitter in GC history and also lettered on the hardwood, where he was a two-time all-league selection in the Mid-Central Conference.

Miller is currently teaching physical education at Archbold Middle School and is pursuing a master’s degree from DC.

He and his wife, Janet, have two daughters, Jordan and Taylor, and one son, Paxson.
