Jamie (Tekotte) Sallie becomes the first women’s soccer player to enter Edinboro’s Hall of Fame. She has been associated with the Edinboro program since 2001, first as one of the best players ever for the Fighting Scots, and for the last ten years as an assistant coach. After playing one season at Central Michigan, Sallie transferred to Edinboro in 2001 and played her final three seasons as a Fighting Scot. She would conclude her career with 37 goals and 11 assists for 85 points. The 37 goals were a career record which stood until this past year, and the 85 points ranked second at the time and is still the third-highest total. In 2001, she finished second on the team in scoring with 29 points, tying for the team lead with 12 goals and adding five assists. She earned first team All-PSAC accolades and was a second team NSCAA All-Northeast Region pick. The 2001 Edinboro edition was the first to qualify for the PSAC Tournament, ending the year with an 11-5-1 record. After finishing with four goals for eight points as a junior, she recorded the top scoring season ever by a Fighting Scot as a senior, finishing with school-records of 21 goals and 48 points. She ranked second in the PSAC in points, points per game, goals, and goals per game, and as 13th in Division II in goals per game and 15th in points per game. Sallie led Edinboro to a 12-7-1 and a second PSAC postseason berth. She earned first team NSCAA All-Northeast Region and All-PSAC honors. Since concluding her brilliant career, she has worked as an assistant coach under head coach Gary Kagiavas. Edinboro has made the PSAC Playoffs seven times in her ten seasons along with three NCAA Tournament bids. Edinboro has won 10-or-more matches seven times. In fact, in 2012 she served as interim head coach for the final seven games of the season after Kagiavas was injured in an automobile accident. She would guide the Fighting Scots to a 4-1-2 record as they reached the PSAC Playoffs and the NCAA Tournament.
