NC State Extends ACC Win Streak to Six with Win Over Virginia Tech
NC State (18-6, 9-2 ACC) extended its ACC winning streak to six games on Saturday afternoon, defeating Virginia Tech (16-8, 5-6 ACC) 82-73 at the Lenovo Center. A trio of Wolfpack guards powered the victory, continuing a stretch of offensive consistency that has become the program’s calling card in recent weeks.
Sophomore Paul McNeil Jr. and senior guard Quadir Copeland led all scorers with 21 points apiece, each delivering in a different but equally impactful way.
McNeil Jr. stayed red-hot from deep, knocking down 4 of 7 three-pointers and finishing 5 of 8 from the field and 7 of 8 at the line. He added a team-high two blocks, continuing his emergence as a two-way weapon on the perimeter.
