CofC (7-4, 3-0 SoCon) swept the Catamounts (1-2, 0-1 SoCon) for the seventh consecutive year as the team claimed its third conference win of the season.

Southern Conference Player of the Week sophomore Caroline Newman (Greensboro, N.C./Pope) stretched her singles win streak to five at the second and third spots, respectively. After edging WCU's Izabella Glinska 7-6 in the first set, Newman dominated the second set 6-0 for the win. She followed up with a 6-2, 6-2 win over Charlotte's Kimber Redfern in the afternoon match.

Newman also paired with senior Laura Borza (Toronto, Ontario/Mary Ward Secondary) to pick up an 8-2 victory over the 49ers at the No. 3 doubles spot.

Returning from a one-match hiatus, senior Holly Dowse (Tuncurry, Australia/Forster) earned an easy 6-0, 3-0 victory in her first singles match of the day before moving on to defeat Charlotte's Alexandra Zinn 6-1, 6-2 at the top spot. Dowse also picked up two victories in doubles action, teaming up with junior Emma Hayman (Wanganui, New Zealand/New Mexico) for a pair of 8-3 wins at the No. 1 doubles spot.

Juniors Emma Hayman (Wanganui, New Zealand/New Mexico) and Kinsey Casey (Alpharetta, Ga./Northview) each brought their singles win streaks to four matches. Hayman defeated WCU's Amanda Massey 6-0, 6-4 at the No. 2 spot. Casey picked up a 6-2, 6-1 win against Catamount Ainhoa Iglesias Diaz at the No. 4 spot before moving to the second spot to defeat 49ers' Andrea Rivera, 6-4, 6-2 in the afternoon match.

Charlotte dropped to 3-6 on the year after the loss.
