DAVIDSON, N.C. - Kavya Patel picked up Davidson women's tennis' lone single victory while Elon defeated the 'Cats 6-1 on the Davidson Tennis Courts Saturday afternoon. 

"It was a tough match and a lot of mental challenges," said head coach Susanne Depka. "We pushed four three-set matches and had chances in all of them. The match could have gone either way and we came up a bit short. We learned a lot from this match and hope to bring those lessons into tomorrows match."

Kavya Patel and Daniela Porges teamed up in the No. 1 doubles spot to take a 6-2 victory, but the Pheonix's took wins on the No. 2 and No. 3 courts to earn the team point. 

Patel continued her success into the singles portion of the match, winning in three sets on court four in a 6-1, 3-6, 6-4 fashion. 

Davidson will look to jump back into Atlantic 10 competition 11 a.m. Sunday when it hosts the Duquesne Dukes on the Davidson Tennis Courts.
