ELON – The Elon women's tennis team (14-4) closed out its regular season in dominant fashion Saturday, sweeping Coastal Carolina (13-5) on Senior Day at the Jimmy Powell Tennis Center, 4-0.

The Phoenix rolled through doubles to secure the opening point with wins on Courts 1 and 2, then carried that momentum into singles play, posting three straight-set victories while dropping just 10 total games in those matches. It marked Elon's eighth sweep of the season.

Elon honored its graduating seniors Madison Cordisco and Helen Sarikulaya in a pre-match ceremony. Cordisco clinched the doubles point for Elon alongside partner Alexis Nyborg.

The win was Bergeron's 44th career dual doubles victory, tying the junior with Suzanne Zenoni for the 13th most in program history. 
• At No. 2 doubles, Cordisco and Nyborg clinched the doubles point with a 6-2 win over Brunelle Kouam and Francisca Laundes, their fifth win together this spring. The pairing has clinched back-to-back doubles points for the Phoenix. 
• Cornelia Kack and Lisa Kranec were down 4-3 on Court 3 when play was halted.
• Bergeron extended Elon's lead to 2-0 with a 6-1, 6-2 win on Court 2 over Kouam. The victory marked her 11th singles win of the season and her third in a row, improving her to 6-1 at the No. 2 position.
