NC State finished the 2016 season on the wrong side of the bubble, but led by a strong group of seniors, the Wolfpack left no doubt in 2017 that they belong in the NCAAs. After a 12-4 finish to league play, head coach Wes Moore was honored as the ACC Coach of the Year.
With the win in this category comes a celebration cake! Mmm, celebration cake.
NC State is the No. 4 seed in the ACC tournament that got underway on Wednesday, and that means the Wolfpack is off until Friday. The Pack will face the winner of Clemson/Louisville (probably Louisville) at 11 a.
