Despite a triple double by Jarkel Joyner, just the fourth in program history, NC State fell to Syracuse Tuesday night, 75-72.
There were a couple of times when each team had a bit of a lead but it was a pretty close game generally speaking. It wasn’t really decided until quite late when Jesse Edwards converted a three point play with 1:47 to go to put the Orange up 73-70.
DJ Burns then got a three point play of his own but missed the free throw. Judah Mintz converted a pair of free throws for the final winning margin.
