Wolfpack Goes Coast-to-Coast for 73-63 Win Over VT

NC State jumped out to an early lead, built as much as a 19-point advantage and then held on down the stretch to defeat Virginia Tech 73-63 Tuesday night at the RBC Center. Playing without one-time starter Brandon Costner, who was out with a bruised rib, the Wolfpack clicked from the opening tap and never trailed in its second consecutive victory. “It felt good to be able to sit down for most of the game and watch our guys execute and defend the way they did,” said Wolfpack coach Sidney Lowe, who has seen his share of last-second outcomes this season, including Sunday's thrilling win over Wake Forest. That's not to say things didn't get interesting at the end, when the Hokies cut a double-digit lead to just five points in the final 70 seconds. But Lowe and his team held on to even its Atlantic Coast Conference record and notch its sixth consecutive victory over the Hokies.
