The top players at the NCAA Division 2 tennis college level often times can compete at any level in college. The scholarship limitations at D1 create a favorable situation for D2 women’s tennis colleges, as recruiters can offer D1 level talent a scholarship. D2 women’s tennis schools also can benefit from colleges offering degree programs which is a better fit for the student-athlete.  There are other positive reasons to consider a D2 women’s tennis college:

The women’s tennis player with the desire to continue the sport at a competitive level but still wants a college life outside of tennis should not shy away from a D2 tennis program.
