At the 1999 NJCAA Championships, Jami King became the first All-American and national champion in JCCC women’s tennis history, as she dominated the No. 2 singles bracket.  After opening with an easy 6-0, 6-0 win, she followed by knocking off the No. 2, No. 3 and No. 4 seeds consecutively, and all in straight sets, to win the national championship.  King finished the year with a 15-4 record, which tied the school record at No. 2 singles.  She finished her singles career with a record of 25-8, the fourth highest win total in JCCC history.  Later that day she became the first two-time All-American, reaching the finals with teammate Julia Ball at No. 2 doubles.  Her performance helped JCCC to a third-place finish, the highest in program history.  King continued her career at Missouri Southern University, where she played at the No. 3 and 4 singles slots, and No. 2 doubles.  Following graduation in 2002, King earned certification as a USPTA teaching professional, and has taught tennis in Kansas, Missouri, Colorado and Hawaii.
