Almost nine years ago, Steven Miller landed a summer internship as a student at Colgate University with the new MLS expansion team in his hometown.
On Saturday, the North Carolina FC veteran’s journey from college to the pros will come full circle when he gets a chance to play at the home stadium of that team, the Philadelphia Union, when he and his teammates take on Bethlehem Steel FC at Talen Energy Stadium.
“I said back then it was on my bucket list to play a professional game at what was then PPL Park,” Miller said in an interview earlier this week.
