From Banfield: “Jackson Miller is another Ohio kid that attended another institution for a year before deciding to transfer this summer. He’ll be a true two-way player for us as we feel he has a chance to contribute offensively from both sides of the plate, defend on the infield, and he’ll also work into the low 90s on the mound. His versatile skill set is one I think can help our program in a number of ways. Additionally, he’s a very strong student, bringing in over a 3.5 transfer GPA.”
