DAVIDSON, N.C. — Junior Ava Todd won her 17th straight league match and the Davidson women's tennis team capped off another successful regular season with a 5-2 Atlantic 10 win over Richmond at home Saturday on the Davidson Tennis Courts.

The Wildcats upped their record to 14-5 overall and 6-2 in league play. Since joining the A-10 in 2014-15, they have gone 15-4 against league foes, while winning a total of 44 matches.

Todd moved to 17-0 in her three years in the league by rolling to a 6-0, 6-1 victory at No. 6 singles. It was one of five singles wins on the day for the 'Cats to help seal up the team win. The victory was Todd's 57th for her career overall.

Also scoring straight-set singles wins were Anna Catharine Feaster (6-2, 6-3), Megan Scholvinck (6-4, 6-1), Gabrielle Centenari (7-5, 6-1) and Alexandra Abele (6-2, 6-4).
