The Boston College women’s basketball team played their second straight game against a top 10 team tonight, facing #9/10 NC State. BC played a great game on both offense and defense, shooting 45% from the floor despite a high pressure NC State defense and grabbing 42 rebounds, and the Eagles pulled off their first win over a top 10 team since 2010 by winning this one 79-71.
The Eagles won the tip-off and took an early 2-0 lead, but NC State quickly went up 10-5. A pair of 3s from Jojo Lacey helped BC catch up, and at the first media timeout the game was tied up at 13.
