This week Sports writer Will Bates, talks with Northeast Community College’s head coach of the Men’s soccer team, Chad Miller. They talked about where the team is mid-season, team chemistry, room for improvement, and what’s impressed him about the team this year.

This is Miller’s first season as head coach at Northeast. Miller coached five years at the high school level, and also played soccer for two years in college where he achieved his diploma from the National Soccer Coaches Association of America.

Will Bates-How’s the team chemistry so far?

Miller-“The team chemistry is coming together nicely. It took a little time but they are really starting to find it. They are now competing with some of the best teams in our conference.”

Will Bates -What impresses you most about the team this year?

Miller-  “What has most impressed me about this team is how well they have come together. The season started off pretty rough but these guys have found a way to bring it together and create a very solid team. I am very impressed with them.”

Will Bates-What are some things that your team could work on during the last stretch of this season, to end on a high note?

Miller- “Our biggest thing to work on at this point is playing a full 90 minutes, playing a full game. We will play really well for a good portion of the game but have a small spell where we either tire out or lose focus. Once we get back in it we are fine again, but against the teams in our conference that is tough to recover from.”
