The former Kent State outfielder comes back to Kent State after serving as an assistant coach and camp director for South Dakota State. He helped the Jackrabbits knock off power-5 members Minnesota and Kansas State last season while serving as the hitting and base-running coordinator. Additionally, he served as an assistant coach with the St. Cloud Rox of the Northwest League, a collegiate summer league for two seasons and was named the head coach of the Souris Valley Sabre Dogs of the Expedition League, another collegiate summer league.
Miklos was a three-year captain for the Golden Flashes and is tied for the Kent State program record for career triples with 15. He was named All-Region and First-Team All-MAC in 2014 after hitting .362 and leading the Nation with seven triples. In 2012, he started 37 games in left field for the Flashes, helping the Golden Flashes reach the 2012 College World Series. On the road to Omaha, Miklos got the game-winning hit in the 21st inning in the victory over Kentucky.
The Grove City, Pennsylvania native starred in the classroom as well. He was a three-time Academic All-MAC honoree. In 2014, he added Academic All-District accolades. He graduated with a degree in management from Kent State in 2015 and an MBA in finance in 2016.
