To say NC State got off to a slow start on Tuesday night would be putting it mildly—Bryant started the game on a 10-2 run and would make its first nine shots from the field, but that was not to last, of course. The Bulldogs eventually began to wilt against State’s pressure, and Torin Dorn and Lennard Freeman had career nights to lead the Wolfpack to a 95-72 victory.
For a while there, it felt like if Bryant could get the ball past half court, it would score; the Bulldogs were turning the ball over and yet not missing any of the shots they did get.
