Miller, an outfielder for Indian Lake, was named Friday as a first-team All-American by the National Fastpitch Coaches Association.
Earlier this week she was selected to the all-North Region first team. That honor made her eligible for All-American status.
The Virginia Tech commitment has piled up the honors after posting eye-popping statistics at the plate in her junior season.
She was named the Central Buckeye Conference Mad River division player of the year and was the Examiner all-area player of the year. She also was named first-team Division III all-Ohio.
Miller had a staggering .632 batting average this season, which ranked first among all Central Buckeye Conference squads. She also led the league in runs with 46, hits with 60, triples with 10 and stolen bases with 27.
In addition, she belted 12 doubles and seven home runs and collected 27 RBI.
Fueled by the production from Miller, Indian Lake won its first district championship and advanced to the Division III regional tournament.
