With nearly 31,000 students enrolled in 134 undergraduate and graduate degree programs, UTSA is the third-largest component in The University of Texas System and has been one of the state’s fastest-growing public universities for much of the last decade.

UTSA has a total of 36 endowed academic positions, a measure of academic excellence. They include 14 distinguished chairs, six chairs, six distinguished professorships, nine professorships and one faculty fellowship In addition to the educational advantages UTSA offers, its economic impact directly and indirectly produces 1.2 billion in annual business revenues and supports an estimated 15,720 jobs in the San Antonio metropolitan statistical area. Purchases by UTSA in 2009 totaled $69 million, with $20 million or 29 percent designated or obtained from historically underutilized business (HUB) vendors. Sources: UTSA Public Affairs Office

A FOCUS ON A ca d e m i c S e r v i c e s M i s s i o n S tat e m e n t Team Academics was established in order to provide academic services for student-athletes.

In doing so, the department dedicates itself to absolute compliance with the rules of the University of Texas System, the university, the Southland Conference and the National Collegiate Athletic Association.

Finishing Strong
UTSA has appeared in the Southland Conference Tournament Championship Match six of the last seven years, including the 2010 title run that propelled the Roadrunners to their second NCAA Tournament appearance in program history. Two years later, UTSA is seeking another run at the NCAA Tournament and to finish strong in its final season in the Southland.

We have another tough schedule to get us ready for another run at a conference championship.” The Roadrunners, who finished 11-10 overall and 4-1 in league play last season, will be led by a more experienced core of players.
2012 OUTLOOK
“The majority of our team is made up of upperclassmen,” Kader said. “These are all guys that have been in that situation of playing championship-caliber matches. They’ve been to the conference finals and it’s still something they strive for.” UTSA fell short of becoming the program’s first back-to-back Southland Tournament Champions after Texas A&M-Corpus Christi topped the Roadrunners in the title match last season.
While the Roadrunners have solid leaders at the top of the lineup it is the program’s depth that Kader praises. “Our strength this season is that we are a team,” Kader said. “It’s not just individuals out there playing. They all push each other and we great depth that can really be a factor for us this year.” Along with Moser, Kader mentioned the leadership of another senior, Pedro Zanotelli, as an added component to this year’s squad. The Fortaleza, Brazil, native netted three singles victories and seven doubles wins in 2010. The team’s depth will further be bolstered by junior Hugo Guanais and sophomores Oliver Breininger and Kolby Kilgo, who earned second-team All-Southland honors at No. 3 doubles last season. “Oliver worked hard over the summer and showed improvement last fall,” Kader added. “Hugo and Kolby are both capable players that will compete hard for us again this year.” Freshmen David Kelleher and Joel Rubio joined the squad last fall and will compete for immediate court time.
This year, the Runners will rely upon a seasoned roster that features two seniors and three juniors.
A native of Cooper City, Fla., Kelleher is described by Kader as a solid, smart player who understands his own game. Meanwhile, Rubio, who hails from Arneda, Spain, is another hard worker with the ability to play forward at the net well.
Three of those players earned Southland postseason awards in 2010 – Martin Ayala, Tyler Brown and Daniel Moser.
“Both David and Joel give us two more players that fit our team chemistry,” Kader said.
Brown led the team with 14 singles victories and was named first-team AllSouthland at No. 3 singles while adding second-team all-league honors at No. 2 doubles with teammate Yannick Junger. Meanwhile, Moser went 13-6 at No. 6 singles to collect first-team All-Southland laurels and Ayala earned 13 singles wins but was honored for his doubles play with former Roadrunner Daniel Moreiras at the No. 1 spot on the conference’s second team.
UTSA will face another tough slate in 2012 with seven opponents holding preseason rankings. The Birds will square off with five of the nation’s top 50 teams in the first two months and wrap up the year playing two more inside the top-75.
“Martin, Tyler and Yannick are going to be the top three guys in our lineup this year,” Kader said of the trio that combined to win over half of the squad’s singles victories a year ago. “They all have another year under their belt and we expect them to be great leaders for us this season.”
24
“This schedule is tougher than last year’s and we should be able to find out a lot about our team early on,” Kader said. “But, no matter who is on the other side of the net, our ultimate goal is to make it to the Southland Tournament and win it.” The 2012 Southland Tournament is scheduled for April 26-28 in Nacogdoches.
