NCAA Men's Tennis Championship

NCAA Men's Tennis Championship

The NCAA Men's Tennis Championships are held to crown a team, individual, and doubles champion in American college tennis. The first intercollegiate championship was held in 1883, 23 years before the founding of the NCAA, with Harvard's Joseph Clark taking the singles title. The same year Clark partnered to Howard Taylor to win the doubles title.

Since 1963, the NCAA organizes separate tournaments for Division I and II. A tournament for Division III was added in 1973.

Famous quotes containing the words men and/or tennis:

    When men change swords for ledgers, and desert
    The student’s bower for gold, some fears unnamed
    I had, my Country—am I to be blamed?
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

    [My one tennis book] was very, very old. It had a picture of Bill Tilden. I looked at the picture and that was how I learned to hold the racket.
    Maria Bueno (b. 1939)
