The Deacons opened the match with a pair of 6-2 wins in doubles to take the early point. Emma Davis and Chandler Carter finished first, topping Jackie Urbanati and Yufei Long at the No. 1 spot. Just minutes later, MC Meredith and Eliza Omirou clinched against Dasha Possokhova and Elene Tsokilauri.

After a Boston College injury, Ulyashchenko picked up a 7-5, 3-0, default win to clinch the match for the Deacs. Omirou continued the momentum for Wake Forest, earning a 6-3, 6-2 decision on court three.
Brylin battled back from down 4-1 in the first set to win 6-4. Boston College evened the match, taking the second set 6-3, but Brylin dominated in the tiebreak 10-0 to take the point, extending Wake Forest's lead to 6-0.
Freshman Saby Nihalani took the first set on court four 6-4, but Boston College rallied back to take the next two sets, putting the lone point on the board for the Eagles.
