“It’s an honor to serve on the USTA board of directors with so many distinguished members of the industry,” said Roth. “I look forward to working with other directors and the USTA staff.”

Roth is currently the race secretary at Eldorado Scioto Downs. His grandfather, Richard, was a lifelong starter and his dad, Mike, is a trainer based in Anderson, Ind.

In 1995, Roth first got his driver’s license, racing a couple times a year at the fairs in northern Ohio while in high school and college. He graduated from Central Michigan University in 2005 and went to work at Scioto Downs, first as an intern, then in the race office.

Roth lives in Orient, Ohio with his longtime fiancé, Jessica, and their son, Wesley.
