Scott Fickerson

Coach Fickerson starts his second campaign as assistant coach after nine years as the head coach of Men's and Women's Track & Field. He's also the head coach of M/W Cross Country. Fickerson was previously head coach at NCAA D3 Cal Lutheran University in Thousand Oaks from 2001-08.

The Vaquero women's track team set two school records in 2017. Tiffany Costello took 2nd in the State 10,000. Earlier in the year, she shattered a 31-year-old record in the 5,000 meters with a 17:34.37 clocking. Andrea Mueller was fourth in the heptathlon at the State meet in Sacramento. Mueller broke a 26-year-old school record in the heptathlon with 4382 points on March 23-24 at Westmont. Costello and Mueller both earned All-American honors.

Fickerson guided the women to 16th in the State in 2015 and 14th in 2017 with just three athletes.

Fickerson got his Master's in Human Performance from the University of Wisconsin La Crosse and did his undergrad in Exercise Science at UC Davis. Fickerson competed in Cross Country and Track & Field for the Aggies after two seasons at Ventura College.

Born and raised in Ventura, Fickerson now resides in Santa Barbara. When he's not coaching, he can be found outdoors kite boarding, surfing, running or hiking.
