LAKE WACCAMAW — East Columbus went into Friday night’s game hoping to build on last week’s win, but the Wolfpack were not going to let that happen.

Price Wheatley kicked the PAT with 9:03 left in the first quarter to make it 9-0. Whiteville got the ball back and made it 16-0 on a one-yard TD run from Sebeyhon Shipman and a Wheatley PAT. The Wolfpack continued to mount up points in the quarter when Layton McLean hit A. J. Monroe for a 14 yard touchdown pass.
Wheatley added the extra point and that gave Whiteville a 23-0 lead with 3:00 minutes left in the first quarter.
Things continued to go south for the Gators when Layton McLean hit Corey Faison with a 38-yard touchdown pass with 10:57 left in the second quarter. Wheatley added the PAT to make it Whiteville 30-0.
Whiteville continued its point barrage when Sam McBride ran the ball in from two yards out with 5:21 left in the second quarter. Wheatley added the extra point to make it 37-0. The final score of the night came when Jaya Smith ran an East Columbus fumble in from 15 yards out with 3:30 left in the half. Price Wheatley added the PAT to make it 44-0 Wolfpack.
Whiteville, now 3-1 on the season, will host Clinton (1-3) Friday. East Columbus (1-3) starts Carolina Conference play next Friday when the Gators will travel to Hobbton (1-3).
