COACH RINCON ON THE MATCH
"The team did well today and represented PC in a strong manner," said head coach Eduardo Rincon. "We failed to take advantage of a few opportunities we had that could've put us ahead, and that really gutted us in the end. On the other side, Davidson capitalized on the opportunities they had. We're looking forward to our next challenge."
 
HOW IT HAPPENED
- Davidson claimed the doubles point, winning at the top two positions.
- Presbyterian evened the match at 1-1 when Teo Cariov won 6-4, 6-2 at No. 4 singles.
- The Wildcats nosed ahead with a straight-set win at No. 2, but Oscar Alvarez rallied after dropping the first set to win in three at No. 3, again tying the contest.
- Davidson took control after that however, going ahead with a win at No. 5, and getting the match-clinching point after a back-and-forth battle at No. 1.
 
NOTABLES
- Alvarez improved to 6-3 in singles action this season with his win at No. 3. His six singles victories lead Presbyterian, while his nine combined wins are tied for second-most on the team with Nicholas McKinney. Max Benson tops the Blue Hose with 12 combined wins in 2020.
 
UP NEXT
The Blue Hose return home on Saturday for the final match before their Big South opener, as they take on North Carolina A&T at 3 pm. The match against the Aggies was originally slated for Feb. 16, but was postponed due to rain.
