Alex Wong enters his second season of his second stint as head coach of the Bentley University men's and women's tennis teams with the 2023-24 season.

His return to Bentley as head coach was announced on March 30, 2023.

Wong enjoyed a highly successful first tenure at Bentley from 2003-13 when he was coach of the women's team for 10 seasons and the men's team for eight seasons.

"I'm thrilled to welcome Alex back to the Bentley family as our men's and women's tennis coach," Director of Athletics Vaughn Williams said. "He brings tremendous passion, leadership and a strong record of success to our programs. Alex has demonstrated throughout his career that he assists student-athletes in realizing their full potential on and off the court, and I could not be happier to have him back at Bentley coaching our teams."

In his first tenure Wong led the men's program to six NCAA Division II regional appearances and back-to-back Northeast-10 Championships in 2010 and 2011. In 2010, he was named both the NE10 Coach of the Year and ITA Men's East Region Coach of the Year.

Wong guided the women's program to NCAA tournament appearances in 2007 and 2009. In 2009, he was named the ITA Women's East Region Coach of the Year.

Combined, he collected 206 wins in his first stint at Bentley and saw four of his student-athletes earn the ITA's Division II National Arthur Ashe Jr. Award for Leadership and Sportsmanship.

After departing Bentley, he served as the head men's coach at Vassar College from 2013-18, where guided numerous student-athletes to All-Conference recognition and oversaw five consecutive ITA All-Academic Team selections.

Wong was the assistant women's coach at Brown University from 2018-2019, and was the head coach of the men's and women's programs at Wheaton College from 2019-2021 and Regis College from 2021-22.

Wong earned his MBA in business administration with a concentration in management from Bentley in 2010.
