RALEIGH, N.C. -- Freshman Josh Okogie scored 27 points to help Georgia Tech beat North Carolina State 86-76 on Sunday night.
Quinton Stephens matched his career high with 22 points for the Yellow Jackets (11-6, 3-2 Atlantic Coast Conference), who came in ranked last in the league in scoring, shooting percentage and 3-point percentage. But Georgia Tech shot 49 percent and made 10 of 16 3-pointers (63 percent), having little trouble knocking down looks against the Wolfpack.
Georgia Tech took control with an 11-0 run midway through the second half, putting the Wolfpack (12-6, 1-4) in catch-up mode the rest of the night.
