Meet UNCG, the three-shootin’, ball-hawkin’ SoCon contenders

NC State will host UNC-Greensboro on Saturday for what will be the last potential non-conference test left on the schedule. UNCG is coming off a 25-win season and returned three starters from that team, along with some other pieces of its rotation. The Spartans are 7-3 this season with road losses to Virginia, Wake Forest, and, oddly enough, Presbyterian.

It pains me to say it, but Wes Miller appears to be doing a pretty good job. After the Spartans bottomed out at 315th in the Pomeroy Ratings in his third season, he’s had the program on a steady upward trajectory, and they are ranked 114th heading into this weekend.
