Washington High School’s boys tennis team advanced to the third round of the 2A dual team state tournament with a 9-0 sweep of East Carteret Tuesday.

The third-seeded Pam Pack, 16-0, will host #15 Franklin Academy of Wake Forest Monday for the right to play in the East finals.

The Pack won all nine matches over the 11^th seeded Mariners in straight sets. Senior Campbell Curtis (6-0, 6-0), senior Hunter Moore (6-2, 6-0), sophomore Keenan Curtis (6-2, 7-5), freshman Micah Whitley (6-4, 6-1), senior Jackson Wilder (6-2, 6-1) and freshman Victor Hill (6-1, 6-1) dispatched their singles opponents with little difficulty.

It was the same story in doubles as Curtis/Curtis (8-2), Moore/Whitley (8-1) and Wilder/Hill (8-2) rolled to easy victories.

The 15^th seeded Patriots were 9-5 during the regular season but have cruised through the first two rounds on the road without dropping a match. They knocked out second-seeded North Johnston, 9-0, then eliminated #7 Nash Central, 5-0.

The Washington-Franklin winner will face the winner of top-seeded Clinton and #4 North Carolina School of Science & Math for the east regional title later next week.
