| Deacons Tame Pack - |
| James Johnson ran away with the game ball in the first half, to finish with a game high 26 points and 17 rebounds. Chas McFarland outdid himself as well and fell a single rebound shy of the team's second double-double. Ishmael Smith rang up 18 on 6-8 shooting in a relief effort and the team finished up at an even 50% for the game. 39 rebounds, but only 3 assists, as most of the action took place on easy looks. Five in double figures for the Pack, but Tracy Smith did most of his damage with 12 of his 18 early in the first half. Big Ben McCauley started strong, but finished flat with 12 points and 7 off the glass. Thanks for joining me for another installment of ACC action and keep coming back for more. |
| 2H 0:00 - |
| 17 rebounds for Johnson, but he coughs it up to give the Wolfpack late life. Horner takes it coast to coast for the deuce, but too little, too late and the Deacons hang on for the hard earned win!! Final Score: North Carolina State Wolfpack 78 - Your Wake Forest Demon Deacons 85 in the big Conference win!! |
| 2H 0:14 - |
| Johnson may have 26 points and 16 rebounds to pace the game in both categories, but his biggest play of the game may have been the huge block on Courtney Fell down the lane!! The crowd is on his broad shoulders and the Deacons pull away, just in the nick of time!! Wake stays strong at the foul line and it's a 7 point game in the blink of an eye. |
| 2H 0:45 - |
| Degand gets two in a hurry and Costner quickly fouls to stop the clock and save some time. No luck with Teague at the stripe and the lead stays at 5 and they can't get back the ticks. Teague becomes the 4th Deacon in double-digits with 11, but the Pack keeps it exciting with another three ball from Dennis Horner!! Two points spread, under a minute to play. This is what it's all about!! |
| 2H 1:04 - |
| NC State has no answer for Johnson down low and luckily he missed the back end of the three point play. No dice on the other end and it's guess who?? Johnson with rebound number 16 for the game!! Back up to a 5 points spread and time hasn't been on State's side all night. Coach Lowe wants to try and draw up a winner, 76-71 Wake with control. |
