DAVIDSON, N.C. — Davidson continued to defend its home court, winning its fifth match in a row at home with a 6-1 triumph over visiting Wingate Sunday afternoon on the Davidson Tennis Courts.
The Wildcats ran their overall record to 5-2 on the season, while sending the Bulldogs to an even 3-3 mark.
For the third time this year, the 'Cats started the match by winning the doubles point with a pair of 6-3 wins at No. 1 and 2, and a 6-4 decision by Jenna Brunner and Gabrielle Centenari at No. 3. The duo won their second in a row together.
The pair of Anna Catharine Feaster and Ally Sexton won their team-leading third doubles match at No. 2, and Elaina Cummer and Sarah Stein earned their second win in five matches together at the top spot.
The quartet kept the winning going in singles action, with each of them taking home a team point for the Wildcats. Feaster and Cummer won their second straight, and fifth overall, with strong 6-3, 6-2 and 6-2, 6-4 victories at No. 1 and 3 positions, respectively.
