Disputed call has NC State fuming after loss to UNC

Posted Mar 10, 2012
If N.C. State misses the NCAA tournament for the sixth straight season, the Wolfpack may remember a disputed non-call in Saturday's ACC semifinal against UNC as the play that cost them a bid. With the score tied at 67 and 10 seconds to go, UNC point guard Kendall Marshall appeared to lower his shoulder into Alex Johnson in an attempt to create space, knocking the NC State defender to the ground.
