Like the words from Jim Valvano that hang in Reynolds Coliseum, the N.C. State women’s basketball team never gave up against No. 14 Miami.
After being down 11 points with a little more than six minutes left on the clock, N.C. State guard Dominique Wilson hit a layup to tie the score at 62 with 1:43 left in the game.
But Miami (13-2, 2-1 ACC) answered down court with a layup of its own, and the Wolfpack couldn’t respond. The Hurricanes won 67-64.
The loss snapped the Wolfpack’s two-game streak of beating top-15 ranked teams and gave it its first loss in the ACC.
