Mattera, who has been coaching tennis at the Division I level for 29 years, was the assistant coach at SDSU for 12 years prior to taking over as head coach in January of 1993. During Mattera's tenure with the Aztecs, the women's tennis program has been one of the nation's best. Winners of 10 conference championships, SDSU has consistently been ranked among the top 50 teams in the nation. “The tradition of national prominence and excellence in player develop- ment is one in which I am very proud to have played a part,“ said Mattera. “I fully intend to maintain San Diego State’s position among the nation’s elite programs.” The SDSU women's tennis program has produced 35 All-Americans and has received invitations to 21 NCAA tournaments. The 21 invites to the na- tional championship is tied with Northwestern for the 13th-most in NCAA Di- vision I history. The Aztecs have also finished first or second in the conference 11 out of the last 20 years, including four league championships. After leading SDSU to the second round of the national championship and a 16-7 overall record in 1998, Mattera was named the NCAA West Re- gional Coach of the Year. In 2003, he earned conference coach-of-the-year honors after leading the Aztecs to a 22-6 mark.

In her five years assisting Mattera, Gamp has helped the Aztecs average nearly 15 wins a season, guided them to three NCAA Tournament appear- ances and three top-50 national finishes. During that time, she has also played a big role in San Diego State finishing among the Mountain West Conference’s top three, something it has done three times, including a run- ner-up performance in 2006. Just a season ago, the Aztecs were finalists at the MWC Championship. Gamp joined the SDSU staff following a two-year stint as a tennis pro- fessional at Lomas Santa Fe Country Club in Solana Beach, Calif.

olly Bagshaw enters her second season as San Diego State’s volun- teer assistant women’s tennis coach, two seasons after finishing her HAztec career. The Potters Bar, England, native is a part of a coaching staff that mentored her during her four-year playing career from 2007-10. In her time on Montezuma Mesa as a student-athlete, Bagshaw helped SDSU earn a berth in the NCAA Tournament in 2007 and 2009. Addition- ally in 2006, Bagshaw’s first year on campus, she utilized her redshirt sea- son as that team also advanced to the NCAA Tournament. Bagshaw, who finished her senior campaign ranked No. 89 with Julia Trunk in the final ITA doubles poll, garnered all-Mountain West Conference singles and double accolades following the 2009 MWC regular season. She also was named MWC Player of the Week on one occasion in what was a stellar final season on The Mesa. Over the course of her career, Bagshaw amassed a singles record of 55- 45 and had at least 16 victories, including a career-high 20 in 2007-08, in each of her three competitive seasons. In doubles action, Bagshaw posted a career mark of 48-40. In both singles and doubles, Bagshaw spent most of her career playing at the top of the ladder. She, along with Eliska Krausova, also finished at San Diego State’s leader in doubles victories as the pair won 10 matches together in 2008. An excellent student, Bagshaw was named to the Mountain West’s aca- demic all-conference team on three separate occasions.

In 2009, San Diego State welcomed a new addition to the Aztec Tennis Center, a locker room for both men’s and womens’s tennis teams. With its prime location, Aztec Tennis Center is nestled next to SDSU Softball Stadium, which opened in 2005, and the , which opened its doors in 2007.

The 2005 opening of the tennis center was long-anticipated by both San Diego State tennis programs. It is one of the finest collegiate facil- ities on the West Coast and one of the few in the nation to utilize the state-of-the-art surface material. Plexicushion entails six coats of liquid cush- ion squeezed onto the base, which provides for uniform bounce, as well as being easier on the legs due to the increased cushion. “We have one of the finest collegiate facili- ties in the nation,” SDSU women’s head coach Peter Mattera said. “It is very fan-friendly and player-friendly. It’s going to help San Diego State regain the elite status it held in the 1980s when the Aztecs were in the top 10 every year. “We’re at the right university,” Mattera added. “We have the funding, and we have the schedule. So with the new facility in place, it has helped every recruiting cycle since it opened.” SDSU men’s head coach Gene Carswell cer- tainly feels the same way. “For us to be able to play two dual matches at the same time allows us to run some colle- giate events here, some different tournaments that we just have not been able to host,” Car- swell said. “As far as a recruiting tool, it is one of the San Diego State is an impressive 44-20 all-time at Aztec Tennis Center.
