The last time the Notre Dame Fighting Irish clashed with the NC State Wolfpack was pretty much the last highlight of the season.
In its first game without Bonzie Colson after his injury, Notre Dame dominated the Wolfpack at Purcell Pavilion, 88-58. T.J. Gibbs led the way with 22 points, D.J. Harvey added 17 and Rex Pflueger had 16 in spite of losing Matt Farrell early in the game when he rolled his ankle. With the win, Mike Brey became the winningest men’s basketball coach in school history.
