– The volleyball team ended Washington's season last night in the second round of the NCHSAA 4A playoffs, upsetting the No. 5 seed in a 25-23, 25-8, 25-21 sweep! The Nighthawks hope to keep wreaking havoc in the bracket Thursday when they visit No. 4 seed Bunn, in Franklin County east of the Raleigh area, with a trip to the Elite Eight on Saturday on the line. Good luck, Nighthawks!

– The varsity soccer team traveled to Northeastern last night and won by the 9-0 mercy rule against another conference foe. Sam Summerton opened the scoring early in the first half, finishing off an assist from Gavin Arnett. Summerton then sent a cross to Luis Chevez, who buried a spectacular shot into the side netting from a tight angle. Luis Alfaro added the third goal, and Kyler Breiholz followed with the fourth. Breiholz struck again shortly after, this time off an assist from Samuel Castillo. Summerton and Evan Thorn then connected on a quick give-and-go, and Thorn found Grayson Dalia, who finished into the back of the net to give the Nighthawks a 6-0 lead at halftime.

In the second half, Alfaro scored the seventh goal. Cole Voight netted the eighth on a solo effort, hustling past defenders and driving to the goal. Castillo sealed the mercy-rule victory with the final goal of the match.

The Nighthawks play host to Pasquotank today at 5, then travel to North Pitt tomorrow to take on the Panthers at 6.

Sophomore Kaitlyn Schwartzenberg blitzed the field at the Washington Yacht and Country Club on Monday in the NCHSAA 4A East Regional, firing a 74 to win individual honors by 17 shots. Junior teammate Piper Lankford tied for second in the field of 46 girls with a 91, and sophomore Genevieve Castillo tied for sixth with a 97 to give the Nighthawks an impressive team score of 262. That was good enough to beat second-place Carrboro by 37 strokes. Seniors Caba Finch and Savanna Stevens tied for 25th overall and now FFHS heads to Longleaf Golf and Family Club in Southern Pines next Monday and Tuesday for the 4A state championships!
