BUIES CREEK, N.C. — Campbell closed out the regular season with a 42- -1 SoCon victory over Davidson, securing a share of its first ever conference dual championship Sunday at Gore Arena. Campbell finishes the regular season with an all-time program best 7-1 overall dual record and a 5-1 SoCon mark, while Davidson drops to 2-13 on the year and 0-6 in conference action. The Camels finished their SoCon slate at 5-1, ending in a three-way tie for the conference’s regular season championship with Appalachian State and Chattanooga.
