North Carolina State extended its winning streak to seven games on Tuesday, prevailing 2-0 over East Carolina in a pitcher's duel before a record crowd of 2,951 at Doak Field.

Tarran Senay's two-run single in the bottom of the sixth gave the Wolfpack all the runs it needed and took the luster from a combined three-hitter by ECU pitchers Nick Durazo and Brett Mabry.

A stable of five State pitchers scattered five hits and allowed only one Pirate runner to reach third base.

The victory lifted the Wolfpack to 25-10, while ECU fell to 15-18.

Next up for the Pirates is a Conference USA road series with Tulane. The three-game set gets underway Friday at 7:30 p.m. at Turchin Stadium. The Green Wave (17-18) is coming off a 7-5 Tuesday win over Louisiana-Lafayette.
