Erin Scott is in her 11th season as the head coach of the UTSA women’s tennis program. Scott was named the third head coach in school history on Dec. 18, 2006.
In her first 10 seasons, Scott has mentored 16 conference all-academic honorees, six All-Conference USA selections, four All-Southland Conference performers and one CoSIDA second-team Academic All-District VI choice. She guided the Roadrunners to the 2009 Southland Tournament Championship Match, a first for the program in six years.
Last season saw UTSA win 10 matches and Miriam Rosell Canudas earned second-team all-conference laurels as a singles player, which marked the third consecutive year that she picked up postseason accolades as a singles player.
In 2015, the Roadrunners were victorious 11 times for the second consecutive spring, including the program’s first postseason victory in six years. Meanwhile, Rosell Canudas earned first-team all-league honors in singles after posting a team-leading 15 triumphs despite missing the opening three contests with an injury.
UTSA won 11 contests and three Roadrunners — Rosell Canudas (second-team singles/third-team doubles), Isabelle Jonsson (third-team singles) and Jacobea Junger (third-team singles & doubles) — each earned all-conference accolades. Rosell Canudas led the squad with an 18-4 record in singles play, while she and Junger teamed up for a team-leading dozen victories in doubles action.
The Roadrunners made their second consecutive appearance in a conference tournament in 2013, while five players — Jonsson, Junger, Kavya Menon, Miranda Poile and Alena Shichkova — garnered Western Athletic Conference All-Academic honors.
UTSA nearly doubled its win total from the previous two years combined after recording nine victories in 2012 and made their return to the Southland Tournament. Jonsson netted 14 wins and earned second-team All-Southland honors, while she and Menon were selected to the Southland All-Academic second team.
With limited upperclassmen in both 2010 and ‘11, UTSA recorded a combined 10 victories (four in 2010/six in 2011).
In 2009, the Roadrunners had their winningest season in six years, posting a 16-8 overall record and an 8-3 mark in conference play, which was good for a third-place tie in the league standings. UTSA, which advanced to the Southland Tournament Championship Match, won seven matches in a row from Feb. 15-March 18 and saw two players — Holly Phillips (No. 4 singles/No. 3 doubles) and Nathalie Wallin (No. 3 doubles) — earn first-team all-conference honors. Phillips posted a 16-match winning streak in singles play from Feb. 7-April 10 and went 10-1 in league contests. She and Wallin were a perfect 10-0 in conference play and the pair won their final 13 doubles tilts of the campaign. Phillips also earned CoSIDA second-team Academic All-District VI accolades in addition to first-team Southland All-Academic honors. Wallin was named to the circuit’s top academic team as well, while Karen Scida was a second-team choice, which pushed Scott’s total to nine in her first three seasons in the Alamo City.
UTSA won 10 matches and was 6-5 in conference play in 2008. After getting off to a slow start, the Roadrunners finished the season strong, winning six of their final eight matches. Scida earned second-team All-Southland honors at No. 1 singles in addition to first-team all-academic accolades. Other postseason award winners included Monika Drabkova and Phillips, both of whom were second-team all-academic selections.
The Birds posted a 12-9 overall record and 6-5 slate in league play in Scott’s first campaign in 2007. Highlights of the year included a six-match winning streak from Feb. 10-March 10 and three players earning Southland All-Academic honors. Sandra Kukla and Scida were named to the first team, while Drabkova was a second-team selection.
Scott came to UTSA after three seasons as an assistant coach at Wisconsin. She joined the Badgers in 2003 after graduating from Washington with a degree in sociology. Wisconsin achieved a national ranking in the top 50 during the 2004-05 season and advanced to two Big Ten Tournaments and a pair of NCAA Championships during her stay in Madison.
The Agoura Hills, Calif., native attended the Palmer Tennis Academy in Tampa, Fla., from 1994-96 and the prestigious Evert Tennis Academy from 1996-98, where she was coached by John Evert, brother of the legendary Chris Evert. During her time at the Evert Academy, Scott represented the United States Tennis Association (USTA) at several worldwide junior tournaments beginning at the age of 14, including the Australian, French and U.S. Opens, the World Youth Cup in Switzerland and the NTT in Japan. She won numerous singles and doubles titles and at one point was ranked No. 1 in the nation for girls 16 and under.
Scott started her collegiate career at Florida in 1998 but transferred to Washington after two seasons. She was named co-captain during her senior year and led the Huskies to a second-place finish in the Pac-10 and a sixth-place showing at the NCAA Championships. She finished her final college season having lost only one dual match and played on four teams that ranked among the top 10 nationally.
She and her husband, Ryan, have two sons, Easton and Ryder.
