Heavy rain on Friday forced the postponement of four area games as Washington’s game at West Craven has been moved to Monday at 7 p.m. Southside’s  (2-2, 1-0) home contest against No. 6 Manteo (4-0, 1-0) has been pushed to Monday at 7 p.m., along with Riverside’s (1-4, 0-1) home game against Camden (0-4, 0-1).

Northside (0-3, 0-1), who was scheduled to face Perquimans (0-5, 0-1) on the road, will now do so on Monday at 6:30 p.m.

As of 3 p.m. Friday, No. 4 Plymouth’s (4-0, 1-0) game at South Creek (2-3, 1-0) had not been cancelled and Washington’s (3-1, 10) road contest against West Craven (1-4, 0-1) was still on schedule.
