UTSA Athletics 2025 Hall of Fame Class

Fabiola Arriaga (Women’s Golf • 2010-14)
The first UTSA women’s golfer to be named first-team all-conference four times, Fabiola Arriaga earned that distinction in three different leagues, the Southland Conference, the Western Athletic Conference and Conference USA. A native of Torreon, Mexico, she advanced to the NCAA postseason in each of her four seasons, including as an individual in 2014 at the West Regional in Cle Elum, Washington. The 2012 Southland Conference Golfer of the Year, she won three tournaments, which ranks second in program history, with her last collegiate victory at the 2014 Conference USA Championship after she fired a 9-under-par 207 (68-69-70). She was the Southland Conference Runner-Up in 2011 to help lead UTSA to the program’s first conference crown, and she helped the Roadrunners repeat as league champions in 2012. She finished her career with a 74.97 scoring average and 26 par-or-better rounds.

Rudy Davalos (Athletics Director • 1976-85)
UTSA’s first athletics director, Rudy Davalos was hired in 1976 to lead the department into its first NCAA Division I competition five years later. The San Antonio native helped spearhead the campus-wide vote for a mascot and nickname, and he helped select uniform colors and school songs. He guided UTSA Athletics into its first year of NCAA competition as a Division I Independent in 1981-82, starting with four sports and eventually growing the department to nine men’s and six women’s sports during his tenure. He also was one of the founders of the Oil Country Athletic Conference, in which UTSA’s women’s teams competed for two seasons. He oversaw UTSA Athletics until his departure in 1985, going on to serve in the same role at Houston and New Mexico before his retirement from intercollegiate athletics. A 2002 San Antonio Sports Hall of Fame inductee and a member of the Texas State Athletics Hall of Honor, National Hispanic Hall of Honor and San Antonio ISD Hall of Fame, he received the Lamar Hunt Lifetime Achievement from the Texas Sports Hall of Fame in 2016. A former star basketball player at Edison High School, he played collegiately at Wharton Junior College and Texas State (then Southwest Texas State), where he helped the Bobcats win the 1960 NAIA National Championship. He went on to become an assistant coach at Georgetown College, Kentucky and Auburn before taking over the reins at University of the South. Prior to being hired at UTSA, Davalos was an assistant coach and director of player personnel for the San Antonio Spurs.

Amanda Michalsky (Softball • 1997-2000)
The first UTSA student-athlete in any sport to have a jersey retired, Amanda Michalsky was a second-team All-American and first-team all-region performer in 1999 after leading the NCAA in batting average (.541) and slugging percentage (1.019). An outfielder from Spring, Texas, she was the 1999 Southland Conference Player of the Year and Hitter of the Year, as well as a first-team all-league selection. She repeated as first-team all-conference in 2000 and garnered second-team all-region accolades that year. She was picked 18th overall by the Ohio Pride in the 2000 Women’s Pro Softball League Draft and later was selected to the Southland Conference 50th Anniversary All-Time Softball Roster. She still holds school records for career batting average (.394) and doubles (46), as well as single-season standards for batting average (. 541), slugging percentage (1.019), hits (86), doubles (17), extra-base hits (37) and runs scored (57), all from her 1999 campaign.

Mark Schramek (Baseball • 1999-2002)
UTSA’s first-ever baseball All-American and Major League Baseball First Round draft pick, Mark Schramek was named the Southland Conference’s Most Valuable Player, Offensive Player of the Year, Defensive Player of the Year and hitter of the Year in 2002. He batted a school-record .416 and registered a .502 on-base percentage that year en route to third-team All-America accolades by Collegiate Baseball News and all-region honors. A two-time all-league performer at third base, the San Antonio Madison High School product was tabbed Southland Conference Offensive Player of the Year in 2001. He was selected by the Cincinnati Reds with the 40th overall pick of the 2002 MLB Draft and went on to play in nearly 400 minor league games over four seasons.
