RALEIGH, NC. – A trio of ranked North Carolina teams will converge on the J.W. Isenhour Tennis Center this weekend as the No. 14 Wolfpack gets set to welcome No. 6 UNC and No. 23 Duke for a weekend of high-level tennis.
Both matches will be streamed, (vs. UNC), (vs. Duke) and fans can follow the Live results HERE! Wolfpack faithful can secure a parking permit for the match with North Carolina by following these INSTRUCTIONS.
The weekend starts on March 22 at 4 p.m. when NC State and UNC meet for the second time this season. In the first matchup of the year, the Wolfpack defeated the Tar Heels, then the number-one ranked team in the country, in the quarterfinals of the ITA Indoor Championships.
Duke will come to town on Sunday, March 24, with first serve set for 2 p.m. The Wolfpack will be looking for their first win against the Blue Devils since 2021, with the last three meetings all being decided by one point.
The Wolfpack are a perfect 10-0 at home this season and sit in third in the conference behind UNC but ahead of Duke entering the weekend. Coming off a weekend split with Syracuse and Boston College, the Wolfpack are ranked 14th in the nation. This marks the first time this season that the Pack has found itself outside the top 10.
UNC comes to Raleigh with the No. 1 ranked doubles team in the country in Elizabeth Scotty and Reese Brantmeier, while Brantmeier is second in singles rankings.
In the last meeting between these two rivals, the Pack was down but came back to win 4-3 behind wins from NC State's four ranked singles players: Amelia Rajecki (No. 5), Ann Zyryanova (no. 43), Abigail Rencheli (no. 51) and Sophie Abrams (no. 110).
