Miranda Roth

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Miranda Roth (b. 1982) is a women's ultimate player who currently plays for the Seattle Riot. She also played for Carleton College's Syzygy team from 2001 through 2004, and for University of Washington Element in 2005. She played in high school at The Paideia School during her Junior and Senior year.

In 2005, Roth led a previously unheralded University of Washington team to UPA Nationals for the first time, making it to the championship game before losing to a heavily favored Stanford University team. It was her second consecutive appearance in the national championship game, albeit with two separate teams.

Roth was named to the UPA Central All-region team in 2002, 2003, 2004 and 2005 (information for 2001 is not available). During the 2004 and 2005 college seasons, she was regarded as clearly the top player in the nation, winning the UPA's Callahan Award. She declined nomination in 2005.

She has also played for the Atlanta-area club teams Ozone and Fetch, Minneapolis's Bait, and currently coaches Seattle's elite MOHO junior's club.
