The women's tennis team at King's has been a highly competitive program for many years with a number of players challenging for MAC honors.
Women's tennis at one time competed in the spring, but Middle Atlantic Conference women's tennis teams have played a fall schedule since 1993.
In 1994, King's standout Maria Adonizio became the first Lady Monarch player to win the MAC Individual Championships. Several other players have reached the semi-finals in either singles or doubles over the years.
In 2004, Megan Michael was the MAC runner-up and was also named to the ESPN the Magazine Academic All-American First-Team.
In 2007-08, King's posted a school-record 15-7 mark and placed second in the MAC Freedom Conference Team Tournament. Kristen Hunter and Sarah Guza finished second in the 2007 MAC doubles tournament, earning all-conference honors along with Jillian Tallarico.
The Lady Monarchs traditionally will play a minimum 15-match schedule, as well as the MAC team and individual championship tournaments. The MAC individual tournament is held in late-October while the league team championships are held in April.
The MAC began holding its team tournament in the spring during the 2007-08 campaign when the NCAA began awarding conference champions automatic berths into the Division III National Tournament. With the national event held in may, the MAC moved the conference team tournament to the spring to allow teams to schedule matches in preparation for the tournament..
Since the 1998 spring season, King's has also traveled to Florida for a series of matches during Spring Break.
King's plays its home matches at Kirby Park, a 10-court facility which underwent a major facelift in June, 1999 as the courts were repaved and resurfaced while the overhead lights were replaced. Kirby Park served as host site of the MAC Championships on a few occasions.
