THE RUNDOWN

  • Wake Forest's top team of Anna Brylin and Brooke Killingsworth, the No. 26 ranked doubles pairing in the ITA Doubles Rankings, defeated Sibel Tanik and Lizette Reding 6-3 in the No. 1 position. 
  • Julie Ball and Madison Cordisco fought from a break behind on Court 2 but fell 6-4. The Demon Deacons clinched doubles with that victory.
  • Playing No. 3 doubles, Olivia Archer and Miray Konar raced out to an early break lead. However, the first-time pairing did not get the chance finish their match, as Wake clinched doubles with the score at 5-5 on Court 3. 
  • The Demon Deacons won Nos. 1, 2 and 4 singles in straight sets to clinch the match.
  • On Court 5, Archer won the first set of her singles match 7-5 and led 3-1 in the second set when the match was stopped. 
  • Konar was a game away from winning the second set of her singles match on Court 6 when the match was abandoned. The sophomore lost the first set 6-2 but led 5-4 in the second. 
  • Three of Elon's five losses this season have come against Atlantic Coast Conference opponents. 
  • This was just the second match this season Elon did not win a point and the first since the Phoenix also lost 4-0 against No. 34 Charlotte on Feb. 25.
