KANSAS CITY, Mo. - The National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) has officially announced the 2025 NAIA Women's Tennis All-America teams. Honorees were selected by the NAIA All-America Selection Committee. Sixteen student-athletes were chosen to comprise first and second teams. The third team is comprised of 20 student-athletes.

For the second consecutive season, the Marian women's tennis team was represented with All-American honors, as Michelle Irigoyen earned NAIA All-America for the second time. Irigoyen was named to the NAIA Third Team All-Amercia as a freshman, moving to the Second Team in her sophomore season.
