Pittsburgh, Pa. – The University of Pittsburgh named Greg Miller, the associate head coach at the Ohio State University, as the third head coach in the history of the Pitt women’s soccer program.
“I am extremely excited and grateful for the opportunity to lead the University of Pittsburgh women’s soccer program,” Miller said. “There are a host of things that attracted me to this job: the high academic reputation, the amazing campus and the new on-campus soccer facility are just a few. It is clear that Pitt is committed to taking the next step and I am confident in our future home in the ACC.”
“I am very proud of Greg and grateful for the 11 years he has helped us here at Ohio State,” said Ohio State 14-year head coach Lori Walker. “His contributions to our excellence are deeply embedded in the program. Pittsburgh is a wonderful opportunity for Greg and his family. I am excited to watch him rebuild the Pitt women’s soccer program.”
Prior to Ohio State, Miller was an assistant coach at Butler University for two seasons (1999-2000).
A four-year member of the men’s soccer team at Xavier, Miller graduated with a degree in psychology in 1993.
Miller, 40, is married to the former Amy Langhals. Amy, who served her alma mater – Ohio State – as an assistant golf coach was also a standout student-athlete on the women’s golf team. She is a member of the school’s Hall of Fame as a three-time All-Big Ten selection and honorable mention All-American. The couple has a 13-month old son, Colin.
