The Nighthawks won five of six singles matches and went on to the 7-2 Triad 3-A Conference victory.
MHS (4-7 overall, 3-6 in conference), got its lone win in singles action from Matt Gilley, who beat Alex Southard, 10-3 in second singles.
Northern’s Russell Riley beat Ethan Hughes, 10-7 in first singles play, while Logan Williams did the same to Morehead’s Stephen Ziglar in third singles.
Fourth singles saw Chris Bowles fall to Zach Cotterer by a 4-10 score.
