<strong>NCAA</strong> First and Second Rounds at Miami • <strong>May</strong> 9-10, <strong>2008</strong><br />
MICHAEL QUITKO<br />
HEAD COACH<br />
SOUTHERN CONN. ‘73<br />
17th Season<br />
Now in his 17th year as the head coach of the <strong>Quinnipiac</strong><br />
men’s and women’s tennis programs, Mike Quitko has<br />
transformed the Bobcats from Division II power into one of<br />
the top mid-major Division I programs in the nation.<br />
Winners of the past five Northeast Conference women’s<br />
tournament titles, the Bobcats have made five straight trips<br />
to the <strong>NCAA</strong> tournament. The men’s team also won three<br />
straight NEC championships from 2004-06. The women’s<br />
team faced Stanford <strong>University</strong> (2004, 2006), the <strong>University</strong><br />
of Georgia (2006) and UCLA (2007). The men’s team<br />
has played Harvard <strong>University</strong> (2004), the <strong>University</strong> of<br />
Illinois (2005) and Stanford <strong>University</strong> (2006).<br />
On April 8, <strong>2008</strong>, Quitko earned his 400th career victory<br />
as the <strong>Quinnipiac</strong> women defeated Fairfield. Quitko ranks<br />
third among active New England Division I tennis coaches<br />
in career victories and is second all-time among <strong>Quinnipiac</strong><br />
coaches all-time, trailing just legendary men’s basketball<br />
coach Burt Kahn (459 victories).<br />
By virtue of winning both the Northeast Conference men’s<br />
and women’s tournaments on April 24, 2004, Quitko took<br />
another step up the Division I ladder as the Bobcats secured<br />
<strong>NCAA</strong> Division I tournament berths for the first time<br />
in school history.<br />
In 2005, Quitko guided the Bobcats to a repeat. On April<br />
24, 2005, the women’s team defeated Long Island and the<br />
men’s team downed Mt. St. Mary’s to make it back-to-back<br />
titles and <strong>NCAA</strong> appearances. The programs combined to<br />
record a 26-14 record in 2005.<br />
For his efforts, Quitko was named 2005 NEC Coach of the<br />
Year in both men’s and women’s tennis. It was the second<br />
straight year that he had earned the honor from the<br />
league.<br />
The Bobcats made it a three-peat in 2006 as the men defeated<br />
Fairleigh Dickinson, 4-0, and the women slid past<br />
Long Island, 4-3, April 23, 2006, in the Northeast Conference<br />
Tournament Championship.<br />
Following the 2006 season, 13 players (seven men and six<br />
women) earned All-Northeast Conference honors.<br />
The women’s team earned a fourth straight conference<br />
title on April 21, 2007. The Bobcats were trailing, 3-2, to<br />
Long Island in the finals with both Mary Wilson (No. 2)<br />
and Amanda Petruzzi (No. 4) behind in the remaining two<br />
matches. Petruzzi trailed, 6-1, in the third-set tie-breaker,<br />
and faced five consecutive championship points. The junior<br />
then won seven straight points to win the tie-breaker and<br />
even the score. Wilson, who was down, 4-2, in the third<br />
set, closed out four straight games to win the championship<br />
for <strong>Quinnipiac</strong>.<br />
The <strong>Quinnipiac</strong> women defeated Long Island, 4-2, in <strong>2008</strong><br />
to earn a fifth consecutive championship. Sophomore Mary<br />
Wilson was named NEC Player of the Year and freshman<br />
Adrienne Markison earned NEC Rookie of the Year honors.<br />
The Bobcats made it a clean sweep of the NEC awards as<br />
Quitko took his sixth conference Coach of the Year award.<br />
Five Bobcats were named all-conference. In addition, Quitko<br />
led the men’s team to a runner-up finish in <strong>2008</strong>.<br />
Once again, Quitko remains in elite company on the national<br />
level. Quitko joined Winthrop <strong>University</strong>’s Cid Carvalho<br />
as the only coaches to lead both their school’s men’s and<br />
women’s teams to the <strong>NCAA</strong> Tournament in three straight<br />
years, 2004-06.<br />
A respected member of the tennis community, Quitko will<br />
complete his third year as East Regional chair for the Division<br />
I women’s tennis committee this year, and his fifth<br />
year on the committee.<br />
In 2003-04, the men’s and women’s programs combined<br />
to post a 30-11 record (.732). The women’s squad finished<br />
the regular season with a 13-4 mark and rolled through<br />
the NEC tournament with shutout wins over Robert Morris,<br />
Mt. St. Mary’s and Long Island.<br />
Meanwhile, the men’s squad closed with an 11-5 mark,<br />
sandwiching shutout wins over St. Francis, N.Y. and Sacred<br />
Heart around a 4-3 thriller in the NEC semifinals against<br />
Fairleigh Dickinson.<br />
For his efforts, Quitko was named 2004 NEC Coach of the<br />
Year in both men’s and women’s tennis.<br />
He was also named the 2004 USA Tennis New England College<br />
Coach of the Year. Earlier in 2004, Quitko claimed his<br />
300th career coaching victory in a 7-0 triumph over Holy<br />
Cross on February 21.<br />
Quitko has recorded a combined mark of 373-162 (.697)<br />
in his 15 seasons with the Bobcats. The men’s side has<br />
posted a 173-93 (.652) record, while the women’s squad<br />
has gone 200-69 (.745).<br />
In 2003, Quitko guided the women’s team to its fourth<br />
straight Northeast Conference tournament final, where it<br />
once again lost to Maryland-Baltimore County. The men’s<br />
tennis team also reached the Northeast Conference tournament<br />
semifinals, where it lost to eventual champ UMBC.<br />
In 2002-03, the Bobcats placed a combined seven individuals<br />
on the All-Northeast Conference teams.<br />
7
Under Quitko’s tutelage, the doubles team of Stephanie<br />
Petrycki/Cristin Arahovites earned the school’s first-ever<br />
ITA Northeast Regional ranking in the 2001-02 season,<br />
checking in at No. 15. In 2001-02, Quitko had a combined<br />
10 players from the two teams earn All-Northeast Conference<br />
honors.<br />
In 2000-01, the women’s team posted a 14-3 record and<br />
made the NEC championship match for the second straight<br />
year.<br />
In 1999-2000, the women’s team recorded a school record<br />
20-4 mark and advanced to the NEC championship<br />
match. As a result, Quitko earned NEC “Coach of the Year<br />
accolades. In 1998-99, the Bobcats finished with an overall<br />
record of 15-7 and a third place finish in the Northeast<br />
Conference.<br />
On the men’s side, <strong>Quinnipiac</strong> was 9-8 in 2000-2001 and<br />
finished with a respectable 11-8-1 record during the 1999-<br />
2000 season.<br />
Named the Northeast-10 Women’s Tennis Coach of the<br />
Year in 1992, 1993 and 1996. Quitko was also named<br />
the Northeast Conference Coach of the Year in 2000 and<br />
2004.<br />
Quitko led the Bobcats to a 10-2 record and a secondplace<br />
finish in the NE-10 Championships in 1992. It was<br />
then that the Bobcats began a 42 dual-match undefeated<br />
streak in conference play that spanned four seasons from<br />
1993-1996.<br />
The squad established a then-school record of 12 victories<br />
in 1993 and won four consecutive NE-10 Championship<br />
crowns from 1993 through 1996.<br />
