The Morning After: UNC-NCSU

Posted Feb 25, 2015
It was a night of ineffectiveness. A more physical N.C. State team held UNC to 18 points and 28% shooting in the first half. UNC's best player, Marcus Paige was held to one shot and two points. “I mean we shot 7 for 25," Paige said after the game. "We got the ball inside around the basket. They are physical down low. We got the shots that we wanted, we didn’t make very many of them, obviously." (Carolina Blue)
