Career
In 1988, he was named the head coach of the women’s team and took over the head coaching duties for both teams the following year. As head coach of the SSU women’s squad, Cunninghame compiled a 70-42 record, coached the Cossacks’ first tennis All-American, and led five nationally ranked teams, including the 1989-90 team that finished ninth in the nation. In men’s tennis, Cunninghame compiled a record of 36-64 before the sport, along with five others, was dropped at the end of the 1991-92 school year due to budget constraints. The team was resurrected in 1997-98, and Cunninghame also returned to lead the team to a 11-9 mark in their first season back in NCAA competition.
