NC State Wins a Tough One, 77-63 over ETSU

The Wolfpack kicked of a series of challenging mid-major opponents this season with a hard-fought battle with the ETSU Bucs. ETSU showed why they were voted to finish 2 nd in the SoCon this season. Clearly, the Bucs' game plan was "don't let McNeil or Lubin get any open shots", and they got it done. The Pack had 9 turnovers in the first half, and 5 were from Lubin and McNeil. The other battleground was at the point. The Bucs' preseason All-Conference point BJ Ward (who scored 25 against Arizona State) versus Preston Edmead.
