Rosas received a three-year contract extension in Oct., 2024

Rosas has been running Miami's tennis program since May of 2017. Since then, the RedHawks have advanced to six MAC Tournament Championships, while capturing three regular season titles and a tournament championship crown. Rosas is 113-108 overall and 57-28 in MAC play since taking over the Miami program.

Rosas has been named MAC Coach of the Year four different times, including 2019, 2022 and 2025 as well as in 2010 when he served as Miami's interim head coach.

Miami has not just succeeded on the court, but in the classroom as well. Under Rosas, 27 RedHawks have landed on the Academic All-MAC squad since he took over the reins and the team GPA has been one of the top GPAs in Miami Athletics year-in and year-out.

Rosas has been a fixture around the RedHawk program, having spent 15 seasons as an assistant coach. He was named the program's Associate Head Coach in 2013. In addition, Rosas had two tenures as Interim Head Coach, including in 2010 when he was named Mid-American Conference Coach of the Year. He also served in a similar capacity at the end of the 2006-07 campaign.

During his time as an assistant at Miami, Rosas helped guide the program to eight-straight MAC regular-season titles (2009-16), five MAC Tournament titles and six NCAA Tournament appearances (2009, 2010, 2013, 2014 and 2015, 2019). The RedHawks tallied a 226-151 overall record during his 15 seasons, including an impressive 107-24 MAC mark.

As the interim head coach in 2010, Rosas led Miami to an 18-7 record and a perfect 8-0 MAC mark. The 'Hawks then went on to win the MAC Tournament and competed in the NCAA Tournament.

Rosas brings an impressive tennis background and strong experience as an international competitor. As a junior player, Rosas was one of Mexico's finest, ranking No. 26 in singles and No. 12 in doubles in the ITF World Rankings.

In 1993-94, he participated in the U.S. Open, French Open and Wimbledon as an 18-year-old. Following his junior career, he went on to play four years on the ATP Tour (1994 to 1997), reaching career-best rankings of No. 574 in singles and No. 375 in doubles.

His international experience also includes representing Mexico in several events, including the 1994 Davis Cup. After his playing career ended, Rosas spent one year at the Gary Kesl Tennis Academy in Deerfield, Fla.

Rosas also helped coach the Mexican National Team in both the 2018 and 2019 Fed Cup.

Rosas and his wife, Marilyn, reside in Oxford.
