Billy Miller, a three-time NCAA qualifier for Edinboro University of Pennsylvania, has announced he is transferring to Virginia Tech.
Miller announced Monday on social media that he has committed to complete his collegiate career with the Hokies:
"Pumped to announce that I will be continuing my last year of wrestling eligibility at Virginia Tech University," Miller wrote on Instagram. "I cannot thank this school enough for everything that it's done for me. Edinboro will always have a special place in my heart and thank you to everyone in this town who has supported me throughout my career here at @edinborou."
Miller's coach at Perry High School, Dave Rowan -- a former Fighting Scot himself -- told the News-Herald of northeast Ohio that his former protégé will be immediately eligible to wrestle for Virginia Tech. Rowan also said that Miller -- a two-time Ohio state champ at Perry -- left Edinboro for "better opportunities."
Miller has qualified for the NCAA Division I Championships each of the three years he has wrestled at Edinboro. Wrestling in the 285-pound weight class, Miller has compiled a 79-22 record at the western Pennsylvania school.
