DAVIDSON, N.C. -- Sophomore Tai Martin registered the final point, one of three in singles to go the distance for Charlotte, as the 49ers rallied to knock off Davidson, 4-3, Saturday in the annual clash of cross-county rivals.

"This was a total team effort today to get this hard-fought win over a very tough Davidson team," head coach Michaela Gorman said.

The victory is the sixth in the last seven meetings for the Niners in the series. It also snapped the 'Cats school-record 16-match home win streak.

Martin responded after dropping an opening set tiebreaker to win the next two, handing Megan Scholvinck a 6-7 (5), 6-0, 7-6 (5) setback on the No.
