Don "Mitt" Miller - Class of 2015

(Houghton)

One of the winningest high school hockey coaches in Michigan, Miller began the Houghton High School program in 1969 and guided the Gremlins to one state championship (1982) and two runner-up finishes (1979, 1995). Miller posted a 378-260-23 record, including six regional titles. In 1982, he was named Michigan Class B-C-D Coach of the Year and was tabbed with conference honors seven times. His brother, Rick, won 357 games with the Hancock Bulldogs, making them the top brother tandem in the country. He was also a fine hockey player in the Eagle River, Wis. area and the Copper Country for many years, culminating in state championships with the Laurn-Grove juvenile hockey team (1961) and the Portage Lake Flyers (1970, '71). He died in 2010.
