Out of three Tri-Nine girls tennis teams competing in the 4-A NCHSAA dual-team playoffs, only Green Hope advanced to the second round on Tuesday.

The Falcons (19-2) were 6-0 winners over Wakefield after sweeping all six singles matches. The teams agreed to not play doubles after the match was in hand.

Green Hope will now face East Chapel Hill, the team that bounced Athens Drive (14-9) from the tournament by an 8-0 score. East Chapel Hill defeated Green Hope earlier in the year by a 6-3 margin. That match will take place at East Chapel Hill thanks to conference seeding priority.

Panther Creek (16-4) saw its year end in the first round as well, losing to Durham Riverside by a relatively slim 6-3 margin. It was the first time the Catamounts advanced to the state tournament in the school's short four-year history.
