CARY, NC - The RailHawks have announced that reliable defender Steven Miller has signed a multiyear contract with the Carolina RailHawks. Miller played five matches for the RailHawks in the Fall 2015 Season, accumulating a total of 450 playing minutes.

"Steven was a very good addition to the team towards the end of the 2015 season," said RailHawks Head Coach Colin Clarke. "Steven filled in the right-back position very well. He is a young and coachable player with a great work ethic. We look forward to seeing him develop and progress with the team."

Miller grew up in Elkins Park, Pa. and went on to play at Colgate University from 2007 to 2011. He finished his final collegiate season with 12 goals and one assist, earning the 2011 Patriot League Offensive Player of the Year award, an All-Patriot League First Team spot and the Patriot League Tournament MVP award.

Miller then signed with the Premier Development League's Michigan Bucks in 2012, before signing his first professional contract with Danish squad Jammerbugt FC in 2013. While in Denmark, he scored one goal in 12 matches.

Miller returned to the United States in 2014 to play for USL's Wilmington Hammerheads FC, where he netted three goals in 26 appearances.
