NEW HAVEN, Conn.  — Freshman No. 1 singles player Shamael Chaudhry won his fourth singles match in a row and Davidson began its three-game road swing over the weekend with an easy 6-1 victory over Sacred Heart Friday afternoon in men's tennis on the campus of Yale University.
Â
Chaudhry also teamed with Ricky Saad in doubles and the pair won their third consecutive match in helping the Wildcats improve to 2-3 on the season. The Pioneers remained winless at 0-5.
Â
The match started off with Davidson earning 8-4 and 8-6 victories at No. 2 and 3 doubles to grab the doubles point. Chaudhry and Saad ran their record to 3-0 with the win at No. 3, while Artem Khrapko and David Hager improved to 3-1 at No. 2 with their second straight win.
Â
J.B. Gough and Jordan Hart nearly gave the 'Cats the sweep in doubles, but fell 8-7 at No. 1.
Â
The duo came back though in singles action, capturing wins at No. 3 and 5 position, and Davidson took five of the six positions overall. Gough took a 6-2, 6-4 decision to run his early 2015 record to 3-2, with all three wins coming at No. 3. Hart followed by scoring his first win of the campaign, taking a 6-2, 6-3 victory.
Â
Chaudhry easily won his fourth straight match at the top spot by wining in straight sets, 6-2, 6-1. He was joined in the win column by Khrapko and Saad, who tallied victories at No. 2 and 4 singles. The freshman Khrapko saw his singles win streak run to three in a row with a 6-4, 6-4 decision, while Saad remained perfect at 2-0 by coming back from a 6-2 defeat in the first set to net 6-0, 6-3 wins in the next two sets.
Â
Davidson now gears up for its first-ever Atlantic 10 match with a trip to Fordham on Saturday, with match time set for 4 p.m.
