Chapel Hill, N.C. - Furman was too much for NC State on Saturday afternoon, and picked up a 5-1 win over the Wolfpack at the Chapel Hill Tennis Club. Play was moved from the Cary Tennis Center and rescheduled to 1 p.m. because of thunderstorms that rolled through the area before noon. Carmen Torres scored the only point for the Wolfpack in the flight six match. Doubles matches were not played.
