Vassar College Athletics

The 1991 Vassar women's tennis team achieved a milestone in school history by becoming the first Brewers team to earn a coveted spot in the NCAA Championship. The Brewers were among the select 12 teams chosen for the Championship, a notable accomplishment given that NCAA Division III women's tennis comprised more than 325 teams and there were no automatic qualifiers at the time. Under the direction of Head Coach Kathy Campbell and Assistant Coach Kelly Ryan, the team posted a 17-3 record and also saw Hannah Palmer '92 attain All-American status. Their success was further highlighted by securing championships at both the NYSWCAA and Seven Sisters competitions and by finishing the year ranked 10th nationally.
