Clutch late free throws push NC State past Colgate, 77-74
Manny Bates’ absence means NC State is having to adjust a lot more early in the season than it would like, but so far the adjusting is coming with wins.
In a tie game with less than 10 seconds left this afternoon, Dereon Seabron was fouled on a drive to the rim and calmly sank both free throws with two seconds remaining, pushing NC State past a tough Colgate squad.
Four Factors
NC State got off to a fast start from the field and kept Colgate at arm’s length for a good portion of the first half. The Wolfpack led by as many as 10, but the Raiders responded by picking up the outside shooting and went into the break down by one.
