It was a sloppy start to the game for Boston College. The Eagles surrendered 5 turnovers in the first 4 minutes of the ball game. Aside from the BC turnovers, NC State did a good job of establishing DJ Burns on the interior early. By establishing Burns, the Wolfpack got Quinten Post in foul trouble and forced the Eagles defense to collapse on the block allowing for DJ Horne and Jayden Taylor to get going offensively. Burns scored 8 of the Wolfpack’s first 10 points and ended the first half with 10 points and 3 assists, while Horne and Taylor combined for 21.
