Kyle King Named to All-PSAC Team

Kyle King, one of the best tennis players in Greenville High School history, has been named to the All-PSAC Team. Kyle is finishing his collegiate career at Mercyhurst College with some well earned honors.

To date, Kyle has posted a 19-5 record in singles play, primarily competing in the third position. He went a perfect 4-0 in PSAC matches, and was also a key contributor at doubles, going 13-5 at No. 2 doubles with Adam Marnik and 13-6 overall. Kyle was named PSAC Men’s Tennis Athlete of the Week March 15. A senior, Kyle has posted a 50-28 career record at singles and has gone 45-34 in doubles competition. Kyle has been captaining the Men's Tennis Team since his freshman year.

Anyone fortunate enough to have spent time with Kyle will tell you that he is not only a terrific tennis player, but he is a special person. I was fortunate to be his teacher and tennis coach. I am proud of the job he has done at Mercyhurst College. I have been lucky enough to have won a couple of doubles titles playing with Kyle.
