Women's Tennis
One of the oldest and most successful intercollegiate sports at Occidental, Tiger women's tennis has established itself as one of the leading small-college programs on the West Coast.
In nearly a century of intercollegiate play, and with a schedule that is among the toughest in NCAA Division III, Oxy has garnered more than 20 conference championships. The Tigers won a national championship in 1982, the same year women's tennis became an NCAA-sanctioned sport, and claimed national runner-up honors in 1986 & 1987.
Since 1976, Occidental has been a member of the Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference, long regarded as one of the toughest conferences in NCAA Division III tennis.
The Tigers claimed their third consecutive fourth-place SCIAC finish in 2008 after landing fifth from 2000-2004. Two of the three SCIAC teams above Occidental finished the 2007-08 season with a national ranking: Pomona-Pitzer ranked 7th, followed by Redlands at 15th.
The Tigers return three-time All-SCIAC selection Jennifer Wahba ('09) and Marissa Cassman ('10), All-SCIAC Second Team selection. Also returning are Senior Taylor Kaplan and a few talented sophomores. Rounding out the roster are five incoming freshmen. Among them is nationally ranked junior Kris Subbiah.
