DAVIDSON, N.C. — The Davidson women's tennis team started its Spring season off with a tough 6-1 defeat to one-time Southern Conference foe Furman Friday in the Knobloch Tennis Center.
Â
The Wildcats' (0-1) lone team point came from freshman Megan Scholvinck at No. 3 singles. She came back from a set down (6-2) to pull out a three-set victory, taking 6-2 and 6-3 decisions in the next two sets for her first collegiate win.
Â
Two other 'Cats went to three sets, but were unable to pull them out. Anna Catharine Feaster won her first set at No. 1 singles, 6-4, but then dropped 6-3 and 6-0 decisions in the next two sets.
Â
In her first collegiate match, Gabrielle Centenari went the distance as well. She came out strong with a 6-4 win, but Furman's Karlee Bryde came back to score a 6-4 victory in the second set and then finished the match with a 6-2 win.
Â
In doubles action, the Paladins (2-2) took wins at No. 2 and 3 positions to earn the first team point. The tandem of Elaina Cummer and Sarah Stein picked up their first win together with a solid 6-2 decision at No. 1.
Â
The Wildcats finish out the weekend with a 1 p.m. match at home vs. Gardner-Webb Sunday. The match is a makeup date after a snowstorm canceled the original match set back on Jan. 23.
