N.C. State is giving the NCAA another chance to declare transfer guard Braxton Beverly eligible to play basketball for the Wolfpack this season.
N.C. State spokesman Fred Demarest said Wednesday night the school has filed a request for reconsideration to the NCAA’s ruling that Beverly must sit out this season.
The freshman has also hired an attorney.
“Braxton is hopeful this new request will be approved so he can suit up for NC State,” Beverly’s attorney, Scott Tompsett of Tompsett Collegiate Sports Law, wrote in a statement.
Beverly, a freshman, transferred to N.C. State this summer after enrolling in summer classes at Ohio State last May.
