Camp Director: Keith HetskoKeith Hetsko

Let The University of Scranton men’s tennis team develop your game.

In two seasons as head coach at The University of Scranton, he has quickly established the Royals as an up and coming program in the highly regarded and competitive Landmark Conference.

With a roster made up almost entirely of freshmen, he led Scranton to five victories in 2007--more than twice the win output of the previous season--and helped groom the game of first-team all-Freedom Conference selection Scott Melideo.

Hetsko joined the Royals’ coaching staff after serving as men’s tennis coach at nearby Marywood University from 1994 through 2006. He led the Pacers to Pennsylvania Athletic Conference (PAC) championships in 1998 and 2006.

A certified United States Tennis Association (USTA) official, Hetsko is a 1978 graduate of Bloomsburg University with a degree in sociology. He has served as an umpire for the U.S. Open three times and many other professional tournaments.
