The returning Gatorade State Player of the Year, the 5-foot-9, 165-pound senior forward led the Wildcats to a 21-0-2 record and the Division I state championship this past season. Milhoan scored 31 goals and passed for nine assists, recording one of each in a 2-1 win over St. Charles Prep in the state final. He scored a game-winning, overtime goal in the state semifinals and recorded 12 goals and six assists in St. Ignatius' seven-game postseason run to the state title. The National Soccer Coaches Association of America's 2016 National Player of the Year, Milhoan is a two-time Ohio Scholastic Soccer Coaches Association Division I Player of the Year, and he concluded his prep soccer career with 80 goals and 39 assists.
Milhoan has maintained a 3.68 GPA in the classroom. He has signed a national letter of intent to play soccer on scholarship at Xavier University beginning this fall.
Milhoan has volunteered locally at a home for cancer patients and at a homeless shelter. He has also donated his time as a youth soccer coach and referee. "Stephen was a special player," said Rick Collins, head coach of Olentangy Liberty High. "He was everywhere, always on the ball and active making runs off the ball and very hard to mark."
