Wake Forest collapses late again, loses to N.C. State 72-63
For what feels like the 100th time this season, Wake Forest (8-10, 1-45) held a late lead before collapsing under the pressure of holding onto that lead, this time on the road to N.C. State (13-6, 3-3) in a 72-63 loss.
After taking a 63-61 lead on a Doral Moore dunk with 4:30 left, N.C. State finished the game on an 11-0 run to send the Deacs to its fourth straight loss, with a daunting schedule ahead.
For much of the game it was a battle of inside threats, with Doral Moore of Wake Forest and Omer Yurtseven exchanging blows on the offensive side of things. Moore finished with 15 points, 10 rebounds, and 3 blocks, while Yurtseven finished with 22 points, 8 rebounds and a block.
