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. We provide the necessary academic support services for all studentathletes to be successful in the classroom and pursue an undergraduate degree while competing as an athlete. The center is dedicated to the academic and personal development of all student-athletes. Consistent with the mission of the University of Texas at San Antonio, the Athletics Department is committed to provide an environment in which student-athletes can be successful academically, athletically and socially. 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.

V i s i o n S tat e m e n t The UTSA Athletics Department will be successful in its mission when … • Student-athletes achieve academically and compete athletically at the highest level and are prepared with skills for life. • It achieves a level of social responsibility, honesty and integrity higher than is expected by the public and is required by laws, policies, guidelines and rules. • Athletics is the focal point for school identity, pride and spirit among students, faculty, staff, alumni and the surrounding community. • The community benefits from public service, affordable entertainment and economic growth derived from athletics.

Academic Success UTSA student-athletes have earned numerous academic awards during the past decade. A league-best 27 Roadrunners have been named Southland Conference Student-Athlete of the Year in their respective sports, the league’s top honor for academic and athletics success. UTSA has had 15 student-athletes chosen as a Capitol One Academic All-American, one of the top honors that can be bestowed upon a collegiate athlete, while 31 have earned Academic All-District accolades since 2003. In the last nine years, 696 student-athletes have been named to the Southland Commissioner’s Academic Honor Roll, including a school-record 131 in the 2010-11 academic year.

President Romo has led strategic efforts to enhance both access to education and excellence in scholarship and service at the University. During President Romo’s tenure, UTSA’s enrollment has grown 53%, and the University has added numerous programs and facilities to enhance student life. The number of doctoral degree programs has increased from three to 21. He also has implemented new student support programs designed to help students succeed at earning a university degree. The number of advisers has tripled, and UTSA, with nearly 29,000 students in 2009, is recognized as a leader in “Closing the Gaps,” a statewide initiative by the Legislature to enroll more Texans in higher education. A native of San Antonio’s West Side, President Romo graduated from Fox Tech High School and attended The University of Texas at Austin on a track scholarship. He served as captain of the track and cross-country team and earned All-American honors in 1966.

Lynn Hickey D irector

A thletics

(Ouachita Baptist • 1973)

ynn Hickey has made student-athlete welfare one of her top priorities as she continues to work to bring the UTSA Athletics Department to the upper echelon of the NCAA Division I standings. Under Hickey’s direction the last 11 years, UTSA has claimed three Southland Conference all-sports championships while consistently winning both team and individual awards in all 17 sports sponsored by the university. On Dec. 18, 2008, UTSA’s Athletics Initiative Business Plan was approved by the UT System Board of Regents, granting permission to start a football program. Hickey made a splash with the hiring of the first-ever head football coach, as two-time National Coach of the Year Larry Coker was introduced on March 6, 2009. Hickey has led the charge for UTSA and its hosting of numerous NCAA Championship events. Since her arrival on campus, UTSA has served as host institution for the 2001 NCAA Men’s Basketball Midwest Regional, 2002 Women’s Final Four, 2003 Men’s Basketball South Regional, 2004 Men’s Final Four, 2005 Women’s Volleyball Championship, 2006 Women’s Basketball South Regional, 2007 Men’s Basketball South Regional, 2008 Men’s Final Four and 2010 Women’s Final Four. It will serve as host for the 2011 Men’s Basketball Southwest Regional and 2011 Women’s Volleyball Championship. When the calendar is turned to 2012, UTSA will have hosted 14 NCAA Championship events in a 15-year period. In 2007, Hickey was named to the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Committee, one of the most prestigious appointments in all of collegiate athletics. The 10-member committee oversees administration of the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Championship, including the selection and seeding of teams for the tournament. Hickey became just the second female ever selected to the committee, joining UNC Charlotte Athletics Director Judy Rose, who served from 19992003. Hickey has been honored nationally for her hard work at UTSA. She was named the National Association of Collegiate Women Athletics Administrators 2005 Division I-AAA Administrator of the Year. Hickey earned her second national award in June 2006 as the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA)/ GeneralSports TURF Systems Division I-AAA

West Region AD of the Year (ADOY). She also was selected to and completed the Masters Leadership Program of San Antonio and Bexar County. “UTSA is very fortunate to have an athletic leader with both the administrative and coaching experience of Lynn Hickey,” UTSA President Dr. Ricardo Romo said. “Lynn not only is a leader who can take our athletic program to the next level, but she is also well respected nationally and serves as an excellent role model for all student-athletes at this university.” In serving as the fourth athletics director in UTSA history, Hickey assumed the lead athletics role at one of the youngest NCAA Division I universities in the country (UTSA began athletic competition in 1981). The only female Division I athletics director that oversees both men’s and women’s sports in the state of Texas, she served as President of the Southland Conference from 2002-04 and as the SLC’s representative to the NCAA Championship/Competition Cabinet. “It has been an exciting time,” said Hickey, who served on the Women’s Basketball Rules Committee from 2003-06, the last two as Chair. “We have made some good strides to bring the program to prominence nationally. San Antonio is an outstanding city and is a tremendous asset to the unlimited potential of the UTSA athletics program.” Hired by UTSA in October 1999, Hickey came to San Antonio from Texas A&M University, where she served as senior associate athletic director/senior woman administrator since 1994. At Texas A&M, her responsibilities included event management and marketing and promotions for 16 of the university’s 19 Division I sports. She also represented the Big 12 Conference as a member of the NCAA Championship Cabinet. From 1984-94, Hickey served as head women’s basketball coach for Texas A&M. She directed the 1993-94 Aggies basketball team to the NCAA Tournament Sweet 16, becoming the lowest-seeded team to ever reach that milestone. Texas A&M finished the year ranked No. 19 in the CNN/USA Today Top 25 poll. Following the season, Hickey relinquished her coaching duties to accept the promotion to senior associate athletic director. She finished her coaching career with an overall mark of 279-167 in 15 years of collegiate coaching. Before her stint at A&M, Hickey was head women’s basketball coach at Kansas State University from 1979-84. She averaged more than 23 wins per season in posting a 125-39 (.762) record over five years and led the Wildcats to five consecutive NCAA Tournament berths. She was inducted into the Kansas State Athletics Hall of Fame in September 2004. A native of Welch, Okla., Hickey graduated summa cum laude from Ouachita Baptist University in Arkadelphia, Ark., with a bachelor’s degree in education. She was an All-American for OBU’s nationally-ranked basketball team and a member of the USA National Team in 1973. Hickey and her husband, Bill, have one daughter, Lauren Nicole.

NCAA C o m p l i a n c e The NCAA Rules

and

Fans

Compliance with NCAA rules is one of the highest priorities for our athletics program and institution. As a member of the NCAA, the University of Texas at San Antonio is accountable for the actions of its boosters and fans. Even the bestintentioned action on a fan’s part may be a violation of NCAA rules. Please contact the UTSA Compliance Office if you have any questions concerning what is permissible. Inquiries should be directed to the UTSA Compliance Office at this address: UTSA Compliance Office Intercollegiate Athletics One UTSA Circle San Antonio, TX 78249 Phone: (210) 458-5493

Representatives of Athletics Interests A “representative of UTSA’s athletics interests,” or booster, is anyone who: • Has ever participated in or is currently a member of the various athletics department support groups; • Has made a donation to the athletics program; • Has helped arrange summer and/ or vacation employment for studentathletes; or • Has been involved, in anyway, in the promotion of UTSA’s athletics program

Extra Benefits

Prospective and current studentathletes may not receive extra benefits. An extra benefit is any special arrangement by an institutional employee or representative of the institution’s athletic interests to provide a student-athlete or his/her family a benefit not authorized by NCAA legislation. Extra benefits would include, but are not limited to: • An employment arrangement for a prospect’s relatives; • Gifts of clothing or equipment; • Cosigning of loans; • Providing loans to a prospect’s relatives or friends; • Cash or like items; • Use of an automobile; • Any tangible items, including merchandise; • Free or reduced-cost services, rentals or purchases of any type; • Free or reduced-cost housing • Use of a college’s athletic equipment; • Sponsorship of or arrangement for an awards banquet for high school, prep school or two-year college athletes by a college, athletics representative or its alumni groups; • Employment of a student-athlete at a rate higher then the wages paid for similar work; and • Payment to a student-athlete for work not performed.

Recruiting

Only coaches and athletics department staff may be involved in the recruiting process. Athletic representatives are prohibited from contacting a prospective student-athlete or members of his/her family by telephone, letter, e-mail, or in person for the purpose of encouraging participation in athletics at The University of Texas at San Antonio. This prohibition remains in effect even after the prospect signs a national letterof-intent (scholarship offer). You can do your part by forwarding names of any potential recruits to the UTSA coaching staffs.

Prospective Student-Athlete

A prospective student-athlete is a person who has started classes for the ninth grade. You can become a prospect even if you have not started the ninth grade, if a college gives you or your relatives any financial aid help or other benefits that it does not give others. Before a prospect can make an official visit to UTSA, he/she must present (1) a score from a PSAT, SAT or ACT test (through an official high school or testing agency), (2) an academic transcript, and (3) must register with the NCAA Eligibility Center and must be placed on the institution’s Institution Request List with the NCAA Eligibility Center.

Visiting UTSA Official Visit: An “official visit” is a visit paid in whole or in part by the university and cannot exceed 48 hours in length. A prospect can make a total of five official visits, with a limit of only one per university. Unofficial Visit: An “unofficial visit” is a visit made at the prospect’s own expense. The university may provide (a) three complimentary tickets to an on-campus athletics event in which the university’s team is competing and (b) transportation to view offcampus practice and competition sites within a 30-mile radius. Prospects can make as many unofficial visits as they want. More information concerning recruiting and initial eligibility can be found online at: ncaa.org goUTSA.com

2012 UTSA Roadrunners Track & Field

Meet The Coaching Staff Aaron Fox_______________54-56 Scott Slade_________________57 Chris Adams________________58 Steven Brown_______________58 Adam Hudson______________58

Director of Track & Field/Cross Country Aaron Fox

aron Fox just is in his fourth season as director of track & field and cross country. An integral part of UTSA track & field for more than a decade, Fox has been in charge of the men since 2003 and he added the women to his list of responsibilities following the merging of the two programs in July 2008. His Roadrunners career began as an assistant for both the men and women from 2000-02. He has led the men to a league-record-tying six consecutive Southland Conference Indoor Championships and been named Southland Indoor Coach of the Year the past half dozen seasons (only coach in league history to earn six straight awards). Fox’s other honors include the 2008 and ‘11 U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) Indoor South Central Region Coach of the Year and Southland Outdoor Coach of the Year in two of the past four years (2008, ’10). He also represented Team USA as an assistant coach at the 2010 Thorpe Cup (annual United States/Germany decathlon competition). A former All-America decathlete at the University of Texas, he already has tutored several high-profile athletes at UTSA, including four-time All-American and current NFL player Teddy Williams, three-time All-American Justin Youngblood, two-time All-Americans Devon Bond, Larry Brooks and Richard Garrett Jr., All-Americans Brandon Buteaux and Rhonda Ray, two-time national qualifier Curtis Johnson, four-time Southland Champion Will Vese and 2008 Southland Cross Country, six-time indoor and two-time outdoor league champion Dana Mecke. Under his watchful eye, Roadrunners student-athletes have broken or tied six conference records and established a total of 36 school marks. They also have won 88 league titles and earned 16 AllAmerica certificates. There has been just as much success in the classroom, as multi-event performer Bryan Wolfe swept Southland Student-Athlete of the Year honors in 2005 and ’06, while Mecke has been honored four times (2008 cross country/’09-10 indoor/’10 outdoor) in addition to earning third-team ESPN The Magazine/ CoSIDA Academic All-America accolades in 2010. During the past six years, 72 individuals have qualified for NCAA Championship Preliminary Round competition and 16 have advanced to the national meets. In a tight team race that came down to the final event, the Flagstaff, Ariz., native led UTSA to its first-ever Southland Indoor Championship in 2006 behind individual championships from Buteaux (heptathlon) and Mthobisi Baloyi (800m). His Roadrunners successfully defended that title a year later on the strength of gold medals by Brooks (800m), Gaston Griffin (400m) and Vese (60m hurdles) and UTSA completed the three-peat in 2008 when a league-record six athletes — Steven Brown (200m), Luke Johnson (shot put), P.J. McGowen (high jump), Vese (60m hurdles), Williams (60m) and Tommy Wolfe (heptathlon) — came back to the Alamo City with individual championships.

The Roadrunners picked up their fourth consecutive title in February 2009 when Vese (60m hurdles), Johnathan Whittaker (high jump), Williams (60m/200m) and Tommy Wolfe (heptathlon) finished on top. Williams collected Southland Indoor Athlete of the Year and Outstanding Track Performer honors after becoming the first athlete in five years to sweep the short sprints at the conference meet. He went on to post the third-fastest preliminary heat time, a league record 6.59, at the NCAA Indoor Championships and picked up his second All-America certificate with his eighthplace showing. He went on to post the world’s fastest 100m time in any condition, 9.90, at the UTEP Invitational in April, which stood for two-and-a-half months. Meanwhile, Vese also picked up his third title in a row in the 60m hurdles and Tommy Wolfe won his third straight conference multi-events championship. Crown number five came the following season when the Birds received winning performances from Williams (60m/200m), Keith Benford (high jump), Devon Bond (triple jump) and the distance medley relay team of Brandon Chiuminetta, Canel Cole, Bryan Ugochukwu and Albert Cardenas. Williams was tabbed the league’s Athlete of the Year and Outstanding Track Performer for the second season in a row, while Benford and Bond were named Freshman and Newcomer of the Year, respectively. UTSA matched Lamar’s 26-year-old Southland record last February with its sixth straight title and that came on the strength of the Roadrunners equaling their conference record with a half dozen gold medals — Benford (high jump), Bond (triple jump), Cardenas (mile), Garrett Jr. (shot put), Taylor Reed (pole vault) and Tyler Williamson (long jump). That helped the Birds score an astonishing 153 points, which was the second-highest total in the meet’s 32-year history. Garrett Jr. was named the Outstanding Field Performer and he went on to earn second-team All-America honors at the NCAA Indoor. UTSA ended a streak of back-to-back second-place finishes at the conference’s outdoor meet in 2008, giving the program its first-ever indoor/outdoor sweep in school history. First-place efforts by Williams in the 100m and 200m, Vese in the 110m hurdles, Tommy Wolfe in the decathlon and the 400-meter relay team vaulted the Roadrunners to their second Southland Outdoor Championship in school annals. Following that meet, the team entered the USTFCCA Top 25 Poll, which was the first national ranking by any program in UTSA Athletics history. Williams earned All-America honors in the 100m following his seventh-place performance at the 2008 NCAA Outdoor Championships and he went on to advance to the quarterfinals at the United States Olympic Trials. The fifth All-American in school history had a year to remember, as he set a total of four school records — 60m (6.66), 100m (10.16), 200m (20.60) and 400m relay (39.84) in addition to winning the NCAA Midwest Regional 100m title, the Southland Outdoor 100m, 200m and 400m relay crowns and the

Director of Track & Field/Cross Country Aaron Fox Southland Indoor 60m gold medal. Williams, who led 1-2-3 finishes in both short sprints at the conference’s outdoor meet, was named the league’s Outstanding Outdoor Track Performer. He also set a new conference record in the 60m dash in January and competed at the NCAA Indoor Championships two months later. The Tyler native capped his season by running on the 400m relay team that ran the world’s fastest time (38.39) at the NACAC Under-23 Championships. Meanwhile, Brown collected All-Midwest Region honors in the 100m, was named the Southland Indoor Athlete of the Year and was the high-point scorer at both league meets, while Tommy Wolfe became the first athlete to sweep both multi-event competitions in league history. The program’s second sweep in three years came in 2010 when Williams (100m), Bond (high & triple jumps) and Williamson (long jump) won individual titles at the Southland Outdoor. The Birds scored a then-school-record 148 points en route to their seventh title under Fox’s tutelage and Williams recorded the nation’s top 100m time (10.03w) in his gold-medal performance. Bond went on to post the third-best national finish in program history with his fifth-place effort in the triple jump, while Williams became UTSA’s first-ever four-time All-American with his ninth-place showing in the 100m. He went on to sign a free agent contract with the Dallas Cowboys in July 2010, becoming the first UTSA athlete to play in the National Football League. Three Roadrunners — Benford (high jump), Bond (triple jump) and Keyunta Hayes (400m hurdles) — won conference crowns at the 2011 Southland Outdoor, as UTSA finished second to Stephen F. Austin by 16 points. Hayes was tabbed the conference’s Freshman of the Year, a first in program history, after accounting for 16.75 points, which was the highest total among league frosh. Ten athletes qualified for the NCAA Outdoor Preliminary Rounds and a school-record three — Benford (high jump/honorable mention), Bond (triple jump/second team) and Garrett Jr. (shot put/second team) — went on to earn All-America honors. On the women’s side, Fox immediately has turned the Roadrunners into Southland contenders in just three short seasons. The 2011 campaign saw Aimee Jonas capture the program’s seventh Southland pentathlon title, which helped lead UTSA to a thirdplace finish. Meanwhile, Katie Bragg picked up the school’s firstever hammer crown during the outdoor season, as the Roadrunners placed sixth in the team standings. Mecke helped lead the program to a five-place improvement at the 2010 Southland Outdoor and she was named the league’s Athlete of the Year after winning the 800m and 1,500m titles. Her middle distance sweep was the first in the conference in seven years. Jessica Jones was the Birds’ other champion, as she won her third consecutive 100m hurdles crown, joining former UTSA All-American Ryanne Dupree as the circuit’s only three-time winners in the event. UTSA posted its highest indoor finish, third, in a half dozen years in February 2010 on the strength of a school-record-tying six indi-

vidual/relay crowns. Jones successfully defended her 60m hurdles title, Mecke swept the 800m and mile for the second straight year, Pernilla Savestrand and Kayla Pratt were victorious in the 3k and 5k, respectively, and the DMR collected gold for the second year in a row. Meanwhile, Savestrand was tabbed the circuit’s Newcomer of the Year after earning the same award during the cross country campaign. In his first season, Mecke became the fourth female in school history and first in a dozen years to win the Southland Cross Country Championship. She won her first seven races of the season before The Fox File Hometown_____________________ Flagstaff, Ariz.

Brooks, the school record-holder in the indoor and outdoor 800 meters, completed a rare double for the Roadrunners in 2007, becoming just the second male athlete in school history to earn AllAmerica accolades at both the NCAA Indoor and Outdoor Championships in the same season, matching Youngblood’s feat from 2004 (heptathlon/decathlon). Additionally, Buteaux advanced to the 2005 NCAA Indoor Championships and became the program’s third All-American with a seventh-place finish, breaking Youngblood’s school record with 5,519 points. In 2004, Youngblood won the Southland Indoor heptathlon title en route to being named the league’s Indoor Men’s Athlete of the Year and earning All-America honors with a seventh-place finish at the NCAA Championships. He then picked up his third All-America certificate with a seventh-place showing at the national outdoor meet in Austin. In his first season as interim head coach in 2003, Fox led the Roadrunners to a pair of individual league titles and a fifth-place finish at

the Southland Indoor. Additionally, Carl Johnson was named Outstanding Track Athlete of the Meet. The 2002 season saw Fox tutor his student-athletes to several more honors. Both Youngblood and Ray won their respective pentathlons at the Southland Indoor Championships, while Youngblood also was the high jump champion, high-point scorer and Outstanding Field Athlete. Ray went on to repeat as the outdoor heptathlon champion. The pair both finished seventh at the NCAA Championships to earn All-America accolades. The UTSA men won the 2001 Southland Outdoor title and Fox also guided Ray and Youngblood to multi-event league titles during the season. Ray claimed indoor pentathlon and outdoor heptathlon crowns, while Youngblood was the indoor pentathlon champion. Fox, a team captain at Texas in 1998-99, was an All-American and the first-ever Big 12 Champion in the indoor heptathlon and outdoor decathlon. He also holds the U.S. Junior first-day total and long jump records and held the Big 12 Outdoor meet record in the decathlon from 1997-2009.

2012 UTSA Roadrunners Track & Field

Associate Head Coach Scott Slade

cott Slade, who was promoted to associate head coach for distance and cross country in July, is in his sixth year as a member of the UTSA’s coaching staff.

He led UTSA to its best finish in 14 years at last October’s Southland Conference Men’s Cross Country Championships and Albert Cardenas’ third-place performance was the best finish by a Roadrunner at the league meet since Philo Saunders’ third-place effort in 1998. Cardenas went on to earn All-South Central Region honors in November. Meanwhile, the women recorded their best showing in a dozen years and Carly Kitts was tabbed the Southland Freshman of the Year. Slade’s runners combined to earn all-conference accolades in six events (four indoor/two outdoor) a year ago, including Cardenas, who won the indoor mile championship. Meanwhile, the distance medley relay team of Cardenas, Canel Cole, Chrisshun Jamerson and Mike Medrano established a new program record at the prestigious New Balance Invitational. His distance crew scored more points than any team at the Southland Indoor Championships, including a 1-2-3 finish in the mile, and that helped the Roadrunners win their league-record-tying sixth consecutive title. That came on the heels of Cole Reveal racing to All-South Central Region honors during the cross country season. Reveal (eighth) and Cardenas (ninth) finished among the top 10 at the Southland Cross Country Championships, which gave them all-conference honors, and that helped the Roadrunners place third for the second year in a row.

Slade’s distance runners were instrumental in UTSA’s second indoor/ outdoor Southland Championship sweep in the last three seasons in 2010. The indoor campaign saw the distance medley relay team of Brandon Chiuminetta, Cole, Bryan Ugochukwu and Cardenas win the program’s fifth-ever conference crown and the Roadrunners received five other scoring performances at the meet. That effort was doubled during the Southland Outdoor, as UTSA went on to score a school-record 148 points. In fact, each distance runner accounted for points at the conference meets. Layne Nixon led the way at the 2009 Southland Cross Country Championships, as he earned all-conference honors with his seventh-place effort. Slade also helped lead the women to a fourth-place performance that fall, giving the program its best finish since 2004. Kayla Pratt finished second, defending champion Dana Mecke placed fifth and Southland Newcomer of the Year Pernilla Savestrand crossed the tape in seventh place. Mecke and Nixon went on to pick up All-South Central Region accolades to close out the campaign. In his first season coaching the women, Mecke became the fourth female in school history and first in a dozen years to win the Southland Cross Country Championship. She won her first seven races of the season before finishing the campaign with a 23rd-place showing at the NCAA South Central Regional, which was the highest finish by a Roadrunner in at least 12 years. The league’s Student-Athlete of the Year also was a five-time Southland Athlete of the Week honoree. Mecke went on to win Southland Indoor Championships in the 800 meters and mile in addition to running the anchor leg on UTSA’s first-place distance medley relay squad and was tabbed the meet’s Outstanding Track Performer and circuit’s Student-Athlete of the Year. Meanwhile, Pratt raced to All-America honors in the 5,000m at June’s USA Junior Championships. On the men’s side, he helped lead the Roadrunners to their fourth consecutive Southland Indoor Championship in February 2009. Slade then

guided Michael Cook to the league’s outdoor 1,500 meters title and he became the first athlete in eight years and fifth in program history to accomplish the feat. The victory gave the true freshman a spot in the NCAA Midwest Regional. That came on the heels of a 2008 campaign that saw UTSA claim its third conference indoor crown in a row. Three months later, he was instrumental in the program’s first Southland Outdoor Championship in seven years, which resulted in the inaugural indoor/outdoor sweep in school history, the league’s first since 2004. Slade made an immediate impact in his first year with the program, helping Larry Brooks become the first distance runner in school history to earn All-America accolades and compete at the USA Track & Field (USATF) Championships. Brooks also completed a rare double for the Roadrunners in 2007. The school recordholder in the indoor and outdoor 800 meters became just the second male athlete in school history to earn All-America accolades at both the NCAA Indoor and Outdoor Championships in the same season, matching Justin Youngblood’s feat from 2004 (heptathlon/decathlon). The Buffalo, N.Y., native came to UTSA after a three-year stint as the director of cross country and track & field at Soka University in Aliso Viejo, Calif. He started up Soka’s cross country and track & field programs in fall 2004. Slade also coached the 2004 Orange County Marathon Champion and the leadoff leg of the winning distance medley relay at USATF Indoor Nationals. He also founded the Pacific Throws Academy and was the co-chair of long-distance running for the Southern California USATF. Prior to Soka, Slade was the head coach of the cross country and track & field programs from 1991-2003 at Plattsburgh State University. He was a four-time NCAA Atlantic Region Coach of the Year and two-time SUNYAC Coach of the Year. From 1989-91, Slade was an assistant cross country and track & field coach at the Rochester Institute of Technology. Slade began his coaching career in 1988 as an assistant cross country and track & field coach at Adams State College in Alamosa, Colo. It was there that he served under legendary distance coach Dr. Joe Vigil, who served as the United States’ distance coach at the 1988 and 2008 Summer Olympics. In his two years, Slade helped lead the school to the 1988 and ’89 National Cross Country Championships and helped coach five distance runners who won national titles and a total of 41 All-Americans. Slade is Level III trained in distance events by the USATF, currently is the NCAA South Central Men’s Cross Country Region Representative for the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association and is a member of the NCAA Division I Cross Country Executive Committee in addition to being the South Texas USATF Coaches Advisory Chair. He also serves as meet director for the UIL Region IV Championships, as well as the Ricardo Romo Cross Country Classic, which is the largest cross country meet in the state of Texas. Slade will serve as an assistant coach for Team USA at the 2012 North American, Central American, and Caribbean (NACAC) Under-23 Championships, which are scheduled for July 6-8 in Mexico City. An All-America distance runner at the University of Buffalo, he earned his bachelor’s degree in exercise science in 1987. Two years later, Slade received his master’s in health, physical education & recreation from Adams State College. Slade is married to Darlene Holland.

2011 Men’s Southland Conference Indoor Championships

he UTSA men’s track & field program’s dynasty reached historical proportions, as the Roadrunners matched Lamar’s 26-year-old record with their sixth consecutive Southland Conference Indoor Championship. Led by three individual titles by senior Devon Bond (triple jump), junior Albert Cardenas (mile) and sophomore Richard Garrett Jr. (shot put) on the final day of the two-day event, UTSA scored a school-record 153 points to easily defeat runner-up UT Arlington (111), which also was a new program standard for margin of victory (previous: 21.5 in 2008) and the league’s most-lopsided triumph in 11 years (biggest since expansion to 12 teams). The winning total was the second-best in the meet’s 32-year history, trailing only the 164 points Lamar racked up in 1983, back when it was a seven-team meet. When combined with the gold medals won by sophomores Keith Benford (high jump), Taylor Reed (pole vault) and Tyler Williamson (long jump) on the opening day, the six individual championships tied UTSA’s conference record established in 2008. “Once again, our guys came through when the stakes were at their highest,” Fox said. “To win six individual championships and score the most points in school history just speaks to the talent and depth we have on this team. Everyone was focused on winning another title and not only did these athletes compete against themselves and the rest of the conference, but they also wanted to be able to say they were part of history.” Bond defended his triple jump crown after skipping to a season-best 51-9 (15.77m) measurement to win the event by one foot, three inches. Coupled with his fifth-place finish in the high jump, he finished the meet with a team-high 13.5 points. The gold medal performances continued with the day’s first running event, the mile. Cardenas (4:13.67) led a 1-2-3 finish and a 26-point UTSA performance overall with the second conference championship of his career. Garrett Jr. won the program’s third shot put title and first in three years with his third school record of the campaign. He put the implement 61-8 ½ (18.81m), which added an inch-and-ahalf to his personal record.

The Roadrunners benefitted from balanced scoring across the board to score 131 points and outdistanced UT Arlington by 16. Northwestern State placed third (112) and defending champion Texas State finished fourth (91). UTSA, which began the meet’s final day in fourth place with 24 points, began its charge to the front when Youngblood led three Roadrunners who combined to score 11 points in the high jump with his third-place performance (2.13). Junior Steven Ortiz, who finished second earlier in the meet in the decathlon, was sixth and sophomore Robert Thompson placed seventh. In the day’s second running final, Maruping won the 1,500 meters in 3:53.50. His effort, combined with freshman Clifton Tierney’s seventh-place showing, put the Roadrunners in second place in the team standings, 19 points behind Northwestern State (8162). One event later, UTSA took its first lead of the meet. Flores led three Roadrunners who finished among the top four in the 110meter hurdles when he stopped the clock in 14.20. Sophomore James Cantu was second (14.45) and sophomore Carl Johnson placed fourth (14.49) to give the Roadrunners 23 points in the event and a tenuous 85-83 edge in the team standings. The Roadrunners maintained the advantage through the next two events, but Northwestern State went back in front (108100) when it outscored UTSA 16-0 in the triple jump. One event later, Flores and Cantu finished fifth and sixth, respectively, in the 400-meter hurdles to pull the Roadrunners

Maruping’s second-place performance in the 5,000 meters clinched the program’s first-ever track & field championship one event later and he finished the meet with a team-high 18 points. The 1,600-meter relay quartet put an exclamation point on the championship with its winning time of 3:07.44 in the meet’s final event.

2012 UTSA Roadrunners Track & Field

2006 Men’s Southland Conference Indoor Champions

ehind individual titles from seniors Mthobisi Baloyi and All-American Brandon Buteaux, UTSA’s men’s track & field team captured its first-ever Southland Conference Indoor Championship at Bill Yeoman Field House in Houston. In a tight team race that came down to the final event, the Roadrunners scored 111 points to edge Sam Houston State (104.3) and defending champion Stephen F. Austin (103). “I’m really proud of the way our team stepped up,” head coach Aaron Fox said. “We had our ups and downs on the first day, but we knew what we had to do and nailed it. I’m happy for the senior class. For them to get a conference championship on their way out means a lot to them and me.” Buteaux scored a season-best 5,357 points to capture the heptathlon title. The first-day leader posted marks of 8.25 in the 60-meter hurdles, 14-3 ¼ in the pole vault and 2:50.7 in the 1,000 meters to successfully defend his conference championship. Baloyi won the 800 meters, an event UTSA scored an amazing 30 points in with five Roadrunners in the top eight. Bryan Wolfe closed strong on day two, scoring 2,374 secondday points to jump all the way from sixth to second place in the heptathlon. Wolfe clocked an 8.39 in the 60-meter hurdles, cleared 14-7 ¼ in the pole vault and ran 2:52.28 for 1,000 meters in contributing eight points to UTSA’s effort. Freshman Tommy Wolfe, Bryan’s younger brother, finished eighth with 4,874 points, as the Roadrunners scored 19 in the event. Will Vese and Marques Mitchell began UTSA’s move on the track by combining for 13 points in the 60-meter hurdles. Vese finished second (8.08), with Mitchell close behind in fourth (8.15). Steven Brown and Cedric Harris posted 10 points in the 60 meters, placing third (6.87) and fifth (6.89), respectively, as UTSA moved into third place in the team race with 56 points. Brown advanced to the semifinal round a day earlier as the last qualifier, winning a coin flip to break a tie. The Roadrunners jumped into second place with 12 points in the 400 meters. Gaston Griffin earned runner-up honors with a 48.59 clocking, while T.R. Sissel was fifth in 49.28.

Baloyi and Larry Brooks finished one-two with times of 1:53.17 and 1:53.83, respectively. Justin Pitchford, Chris Layman and Eric Miller placed third (1:54.86), fourth (1:55.16) and fifth (1:55.58), respectively, as UTSA moved into first. “We probably got a little more than we expected out of the 800,” Fox said. “We knew we had some depth in that event, but to get 30 points got the ball rolling for the rest of the day.” Junior Scott Briscoe added five points with a fourth-place finish in the 200 meters (21.95), putting the Roadrunners ahead of SFA by 12 with just two events remaining. SFA pulled to within three with 11 points in the 3,000 meters, against Baloyi’s seventh-place finish (two points) in 8:44.19. That set up the finale with UTSA owning the top 1,600-meter relay time in the conference entering the meet. David Burnett, Sissel, Griffin and Briscoe clocked a 3:17.34 for third, scoring six points. SFA took eighth, allowing Sam Houston to leap frog into second behind the Roadrunners in the final standings.

25 Southland Conference Championships

2007 Men’s Southland Conference Indoor Champions

ehind individual titles from senior Larry Brooks, sophomore Gaston Griffin and junior Will Vese, the UTSA men’s track & field team successfully defended its Southland Conference Indoor Championship at Bill Yeoman Field House. The Roadrunners scored 114.5 points, their second-most at a conference indoor meet in school history, and easily outdistanced Texas-Arlington, which finished in second place with 98 points. Stephen F. Austin rounded out the top three with 82.5 points. “To win it for a second year in a row is just amazing,” head coach Aaron Fox said. “We lost most our team from a year ago and replaced those guys with a lot of talent, but you never know about freshmen in their first conference meet. They competed like champions, didn’t let the pressure get to them and the upperclassmen provided them with outstanding leadership. This championship is a testament to the job they did this year. It was a total team effort.” Vese continued his stellar season in the 60-meter hurdles, easily winning the event in 7.93, nine one-hundredths of a second ahead of second-place finisher John Thomas of Sam Houston State. The Houston native’s first conference championship drew UTSA into a first-place tie with Stephen F. Austin (57.5 points) after 10 scored events and set the stage for the Roadrunners’ march to the title. UTSA trailed UT Arlington by a half point (67-66.5) entering the 400 meters and Griffin gave the Roadrunners the lead for good when he raced to a 48.51 in winning his first conference championship. The San Antonio native became the fifth Roadrunner in school history to win an SLC indoor 400 meters title, as he defeated defending champion Chris Edison of Sam Houston State by five one-hundredths of a second. Brooks won his first indoor SLC title and third conference crown overall in the 800 meters with a 1:51.63 clocking. He led five Roadrunners who combined to score 24 points in the event and that gave UTSA a 29.5-point cushion with just three events remaining.

The Roadrunners finished day one in fourth place with 29.5 points, trailing only SFA (46.5), UTA (38) and Southeastern Louisiana (30) heading into Saturday’s final day of action. Sophomore Carvey Evans, who cleared a career-best 6-9 ½, was one of three UTSA high jumpers to score in the event on Friday. Meanwhile, the long jump saw two UTSA athletes – Brown (2211 ¾) and freshman Mo Jackson (21-7 ½) – score points and the Roadrunners’ other points of the day came from their fourthplace distance medley relay team (10:15.20) and junior Luke Johnson’s seventh-place effort in the weight throw (53-5 ½). Junior Steven Brown led UTSA with 16 total points, as he finished third in the 60 and 200 meters and fifth in the long jump.

2012 UTSA Roadrunners Track & Field

2008 Men’s Southland Conference Indoor Champions

n the strength of individual titles from seniors Steven Brown (200 meters), Luke Johnson (shot put) and Will Vese (60m hurdles), junior Tommy Wolfe (heptathlon), sophomore Teddy Williams (60m) and freshman P.J. McGowen (high jump), the UTSA men’s track & field team won its third consecutive Southland Conference Indoor Championship. The Roadrunners scored a school-record 122 points to easily outdistance Stephen F. Austin, which finished second with 101.5, and the six individual crowns were a new league mark. “I am at a loss for words,” head coach Aaron Fox said. “I couldn’t be prouder of this group of guys than I am right now. Every single member of this team contributed to this championship and to have six individual champions says a lot about the effort we saw out there this weekend. These guys weren’t willing to give up the title without a fight and they were able to stay on top. To win by 21.5 points shows how much all of them wanted it.” Wolfe got the ball rolling when he captured the program’s fourth heptathlon title in the last five years with a personal-best 5,251 points (No. 4 in UTSA history). Standing in second and trailing by 114 points entering the final day, the Raymondville native took over the lead when he won the morning’s first event, the 60meter hurdles, in a personal-best 8.40 and never looked back. Johnson followed with the first conference title of his four-year career when he launched a personal-best toss of 56-3 ¾/17.16m (No. 2 in UTSA history) in the shot put. The afternoon session saw the beginning of the running finals and, despite having just 10 qualifiers from the first day, the Roadrunners took command of the meet when they netted three championships and a total of 59 points. Vese successfully defended his 60-meter hurdles title when he crossed the tape in 7.98. The Houston native picked up the program’s fifth championship in UTSA history and became the first back-to-back winner since Carl Johnson won three in a row for the Roadrunners from 2001-03.

The 60 meter dash followed and Williams’ phenomenal campaign in the event continued when he stopped the clock in 6.71 to win the first championship in school annals. Brown (6.82) and Vese (6.93) finished third and sixth, respectively, to give UTSA a whopping 19 points in the event. After junior Gaston Griffin (seventh) and freshman John Matthews (eighth) combined for three points in the quarter and sophomore Bryan Ugochukwu picked up eight in the 800m when he clocked a 1:55.57, a mere three-tenths of a second behind Lamar’s Ewan Simpson. The Roadrunners slammed the door on any hopes that Stephen F. Austin had at winning the meet when Brown (pr 21.60/No. 2 UTSA history) and Williams (pr 21.78) finished 1-2 in the 200m. The victory gave Brown a total of 24 points in the meet, which clinched high point scoring accolades for the Mesquite native. He became the fifth Roadrunner in school history to earn the honor and his total was the most at the event since Justin Youngblood had 30 for UTSA in 2002.

25 Southland Conference Championships

2008 Men’s Southland Conference Outdoor Champions

irst-place finishes by sophomore Teddy Williams in the 100 and 200 meters, a gold-medal performance by senior Will Vese in the 110-meter hurdles, a winning effort by senior Tommy Wolfe in the decathlon and a first-place performance by the 400-meter relay team vaulted the UTSA men’s track & field title to its second Southland Conference Outdoor Championship in school history. It was the Roadrunners’ first title since 2001 and their first indoor/outdoor sweep in school annals. UTSA had placed second the past two years, including a heart-breaking one-point loss in 2007. The Birds scored a school-record 138.5 points to outdistance second-place finisher Southeastern Louisiana by nine-and-a-half points. However, it was not as close as the final score indicated, as UTSA held a commanding 22.5-point cushion after finishing 1-2-3 in the deuce. The Roadrunners also claimed the top three spots in the 100 three events earlier. “When you lose by a point like we did last year, it became an obsession to try and win this year,” head coach Aaron Fox said. “Our goal all year long was to become the first UTSA team to sweep both the indoor and outdoor championships and we were able to accomplish that. This victory is dedicated to the seniors because they have been the backbone of this program the last four years.” UTSA posted a total of five first-place finishes during the threeday meet, tying the school record established in 1996. The flurry of first-place finishes started in the evening’s first event, the 400-meter relay. The quartet of senior Cedric Harris, Williams, senior Steven Brown and freshman Kevin Hunt circled the oval in 40.21. Williams then led the parade of medals in the short sprints with a pair of school records. The Tyler native crossed the tape in 10.16 to win the 100 by 15 one-hundredths of a second over Brown (10.31/No. 3 in UTSA history). Harris completed the 24point trifecta with his time of 10.37.

It was deja-vu all over again three events later as Williams, Brown and Harris again went gold, silver and bronze in the 200. WIlliams raced to his second school record of the day when he ran through the tape in a windy 20.60. The Lions needed a combined 13 points in the following event, the 5k, to stay mathematically alive, but Kalphys Kemboi and Henry Rop could muster only 11 with their third and fourth place finishes, respectively, and the celebration was on. Just as they did at the indoor meet in February, UTSA used the 1,600meter relay as a victory lap. Brown, who also finished third in the long jump, was the meet’s high scorer with 24.5 points. At the league’s indoor meet in February, he claimed the same honor with 24.

2012 UTSA Roadrunners Track & Field

2009 Men’s Southland Conference Indoor Champions ed by a total of five individual titles, the UTSA men’s track & field team won its fourth consecutive Southland Conference Indoor Championship.

The Roadrunners, who began the day in a first-place tie with Southeastern Louisiana, scored 120.5 points to easily outdistance runner-up UT Arlington (101). Senior Will Vese won his third consecutive title in the 60meter hurdles (7.87) and fellow senior Tommy Wolfe defended his heptathlon crown with a personal-record 5,256 points. Meanwhile, junior All-American Teddy Williams not only won the 60m for the second year in a row (meet-record 6.64), but he also was victorious in the 200m by six one-thousandths of a second (21.834). He became the first athlete in five years to sweep the short sprints at the league meet (Courtney Dotson, Sam Houston State, 2004) and the two gold medals pushed his total to six in his three years as a Roadrunner. Junior Johnathan Whittaker, who was victorious in the high jump (6-11/2.11m), was UTSA’s other winner during the two-day meet. “It’s pretty hard to put into words what these guys have accomplished,” Fox said after the meet. “To have some of our guys get a ring every year is amazing and to come back each season with underclassmen and win is quite an accomplishment. It wasn’t easy and that is a credit to every athlete on this team. This meet is dedicated to the seniors who have worked so hard the last four years and come out on top every time.” UTSA is just the second program in league history to win four indoor titles in a row. Lamar won six straight from 1980-85. Just as he did a year ago, Wolfe kicked off the parade of gold-medal performances with his win in the heptathlon. The Raymondville native, who began the day with just an 11-point lead, opened the morning with a personal-record 8.41 in finishing second overall in the 60m hurdles. He followed with the second-best pole vault measurement (15-5/4.70m) and took a 296-point cushion into the final event, the 1,000 meters, and the lead was more than enough. Meanwhile, sophomore Kyle Kaase, who began the morning in 10th place, moved up three spots to seventh with his 4,798 points to pick up two points for the Roadrunners. Those two performances pushed UTSA in front of the Lions, 55.5-51.5, but Southeastern Louisiana reclaimed the advantage after outscoring the Roadrunners, 16-3 in the triple jump.

With the running finals next on the schedule, it was all UTSA from that point forward. The Roadrunners scored a combined 12 points in the first running event of the afternoon, the mile, and they went ahead in the standings for good. Vese then became the second athlete in league history to win three 60m hurdles titles in a row, matching former Roadrunner Carl Johnson’s three-peat from 2001-03. The lead continued to swell one event later when Williams and sophomore Benga Adeeko (sixth/6.88) paired up for 13 points in the 60-meter dash. Senior Gaston Griffin followed with a silvermedal performance in the 400m and junior Bryan Ugochukwu then posted a third-place effort in the 800m in 1:54.08. A dozen more points were added to the ledger one event later in the deuce, as Williams picked up 10 more with his win and sophomore Caesar Slade finished seventh. UTSA closed out the title with an eighth-place finish in the 1,600-meter relay.

25 Southland Conference Championships

2010 Men’s Southland Conference Indoor Champions

TSA received a pair of winning performances from senior All-American Teddy Williams in both short sprints, junior Devon Bond and freshman Keith Benford were victorious in the triple and high jumps, respectively, and the distance medley relay team claimed a gold medal to lead the Roadrunners to their fifth consecutive Southland Conference Indoor Championship. Williams successfully defended his titles in both the 60- and 200-meter dashes to become the first athlete in league history to win both crowns in consecutive years. The reigning Southland Indoor Athlete of the Year raced to a 6.66 in the 60 meters and easily outran his nearest competitor for his third consecutive crown in the event. An hour later, Williams recorded one of the most dramatic finishes in meet history with his triumph in the deuce. Meanwhile, Bond skipped to a provisional 52-1 ¾ (15.89m) in winning UTSA’s first-ever conference championship in the triple jump. The three victories, when combined with Benford and the DMR titles on the opening day, pushed the program’s all-time total to 50 and more than half (26) have come under the direction of head coach Aaron Fox. “I can’t begin to express how proud I am of our athletes,” Fox said. “To win a fifth straight title takes a lot of hard work and dedication from everyone on the roster and we received so many great performances this weekend. I’m so fortunate to have such great assistants because we wouldn’t be experiencing the success we are without their hard work and dedication.” UTSA scored 120 points to easily outdistance second-place Stephen F. Austin, which netted 99.5. The Roadrunners entered the day with a 10.5-point cushion and never looked back. Sophomore Albert Cardenas and freshman Richard Garrett Jr. both picked up eight points with their second-place finishes in the mile and shot put, respectively. Cardenas clocked a 4:12.70 for the second-best time in program history, while Garrett launched the implement 57-9 ½ (17.61m).

UTSA racked up a total of 16 points in the 200m, as freshman Adam Hebert (pr 21.91) and junior John Matthews (22.27) placed fifth and seventh, respectively, behind Williams. Matthews also scored two-and-a-half points with his sixth-place performance (8.20) in the 60m hurdles. The Birds also had an impressive showing in the 800m with senior Bryan Ugochukwu (1:53.63) and juniors Canel Cole (1:53.84) and Brandon Chiuminetta (1:54.64) finishing 3-5-6, which was good for 13 addition tallies. Junior Kyle Kaase rallied late in the heptathlon on the strength of a school-record effort in the pole vault (16-4 ¾/5.00m) to finish sixth with the fifth-best point total (4,942) is school annals. The team’s final points came in the day’s last event, the 1,600m relay, in what amounted to eight victory laps for the Roadrunners. The quartet of Ugochukwu, freshman Xaviar Archangel, Cole and freshman Spenser Eggleston stopped the clock in 3:20.45, which was good for seventh place, but, by that point, the celebration already had begun.

2012 UTSA Roadrunners Track & Field

2010 Men’s Southland Conference Outdoor Champions

ndividual titles by senior All-American Teddy Williams (100 meters), junior Devon Bond (high & triple jumps) and freshman Tyler Williamson (long jump) helped lead UTSA to its second Southland Conference Outdoor Championship in the last three years in Arlington. The Roadrunners scored a school-record 148 points, the league’s highest score since 2006, to outdistance runner-up Stephen F. Austin (134) and defending champion Southeastern Louisiana (99.5). The four individual crowns pushed the program’s all-time total to 46 and 19 of those have come under the tutelage of eighthyear head coach Aaron Fox. “We faced so much adversity before and during this meet and, to overcome it, is nothing short of incredible,” Fox said after winning his seventh Southland Championship (five indoor/two outdoor). “This entire group of guys laid it on line and gave their hearts and souls to win this championship. I’m so proud of what they have done this weekend. “The 10k really kicked things off for us on Friday night,” he said. “I’ve seen so many meets where that event can win a title for a team and for our three runners all to score was just amazing. It really got things going for us and the distance runners really stepped up again like they did at the indoor meet.” UTSA chipped away at Stephen F. Austin’s advantage and tied things up in the discus when freshmen Richard Garrett Jr. (second) and Phil Steinert (fifth) combined for a dozen points. The Roadrunners took their first lead of the meet after Bond skipped to the nation’s ninth-best triple jump measurement in his gold-medal performance, which came a day after winning the high jump crown. With the field events complete, the two teams took to the track to find out who the Southland Champion would be. UTSA was game to the challenge and it finished off its second indoor/ outdoor sweep in the last three seasons.

However, UTSA was in position to grab the lead right back in the 100m with three runners making up the eight-man field, including Williams, who won the event in a windy 10.03 for the ninth conference crown of his illustrious career, His 10-point performance put the Birds back in front for good at 114-100. Williamson gave the Birds their first individual title of the meet on day two when he broke the sand in a career-long 24-2 ¼ (7.37m), leading a two-man contingent that combined for 16 points. “It‘s been such a pleasure to work with all our seniors the last four years and it‘s been a great ride,” Fox said. “It‘s so hard to sweep and they get to end their careers saying they did it twice in three years.”

UTSA Olympians Roger Soler

ne of the most decorated runners in UTSA men’s track & field history, Roger Soler became the first athlete in school annals to compete in the Olympics when he ran in the 1984 Summer Games in Los Angeles, Calif. A native of Peru, Soler was one of only two runners from the South American country to compete, as he ran in the 5,000 and 10,000 meters. Known for his strong closing kick, he entered the Olympics as the Peruvian national record holder in 800, 1,500, 3,000 and 5,000 meters. Soler, a veteran of many international competitions during his career, also competed in the 1987 Pan American Games for Peru. Soler set several UTSA records during his three-year career, many of which still stand today. His indoor records of 4:03.84 in the mile (1983) and 8:10.09 in the 5,000 meters (1985) are in their third decade in the record book, as are his outdoor marks of 3:44.25 in the 1,500 meters (1983) and 13:55.1 in the 5k (1985). The 5-foot-8 Soler also became the first Roadrunner to qualify for any form of national competition when he competed at the 1983 NCAA Cross Country Championships. He came to UTSA from Hancock Junior College in Santa Maria, Calif. Soler won the 1981 state cross country championship and finished second in the 1,500 and 5,000 meters.

Liza Hunter-Galvan

iza Hunter-Galva has the distinction of competing in a pair of Olympic Games, making her the second Roadrunner — and first woman — in school history to participate. The 1992 Southland Conference Indoor Athlete of the Year ran the marathon at the 2004 Summer Games in Athens, Greece, and again this past summer in Beijing, China, for her native New Zealand. Hunter-Galvan finished 51st in Athens (2:50:23) and improved 16 spots to 35th (2:34.51) in Beijing. She was a four-year letterwinner in cross country and track & field at UTSA from 1989-93. The Aukland, New Zealand, native was the Southland Conference Champion in the mile and twomile runs at the 1992 SLC Indoor, the first year UTSA competed for conference titles in the sport. Hunter-Galvan also helped the two-mile relay to a league crown and was named Outstanding Track Performer and Athlete of the Year after scoring a meetbest 22.5 points. In cross country, she won the 1992 conference title and was named Athlete of the Year after helping the Roadrunners to their second consecutive team championship.

25 Southland Conference Championships

Women’s History TSA’s storied women’s track & field history has had its share of nationally-acclaimed student-athletes grace the national and international scene.

An eight-time All-American, former UTSA student-athlete and assistant coach, Tameka Roberts is one of the most-decorated athletes in school annals. She was the only athlete to compete in three separate events at the 1996 United States Olympic Trials. Roberts earned All-America accolades in the 100- and 200-meter dashes and the long jump from 1995-97. Roberts still holds Southland Conference records in the 100 meters (11.25), 200 meters (23.26 indoor/22.94 outdoor) and long jump (21-10 1/2/6.66m).

The Roadrunners, who began competing in 1982, needed just three seasons before showcasing their first All-American. Starlite Williams, who also has the distinction of being the all-time leading scorer in UTSA women’s basketball history, captured national acclaim in the triple jump with an eighth-place finish that year. Jody Dunston grabbed five All-America certificates from 1987-89, earning back-to-back honors in cross country in 1987-88 and garnering a trio of certificates during the 1989 season. Teresa Neighbors picked up a pair in the sprints in 1988-89.

Ryanne Dupree was a four-time All-American and three-time Southland Conference Athlete of the Year honoree. In 1992, the 1,600-meter relay team of Tamny Booker, Portia Matthews, Rosalyn King and Lisa Addison blazed the track with a time of 3:42.05 to earn All-America honors. In all, 10 Roadrunners have earned All-America honors, most recently making a name in the multi-events. Rhonda Ray broke through for a seventh-place finish in the heptathlon in 2002, while Ryanne Dupree earned three certificates in the heptathlon (2004-05, ’07) and one in the indoor pentathlon in 2006. UTSA was a track & field power before joining the Southland in 1992. The Roadrunners then had an immediate impact on the league, winning the triple crown (cross country/indoor/outdoor) in their first two seasons in the league. UTSA has captured 13 Southland team and 111 individual or relay titles in its 20 years as a league member. Roberts won 15 individual conference crowns and was named Southland Indoor Athlete of the Year three times and Outdoor Athlete of the Year twice. Dupree captured 10 individual titles, set three league records and earned Southland Athlete of the Year honors three times. Starlite Williams, UTSA’s first-ever track & field All-American, also is the women’s basketball program’s all-time leading scorer.
