For the first time since 2015, NC State defeated Clemson on the road this evening, beating the Tigers 78-77 in dramatic fashion. The Wolfpack entered the contest with an 0-6 record in Quad 1 games, but the win over Clemson tonight gives NC State their first Quad 1 win of the season.
The Wolfpack trailed by 1 with 25 seconds left. With 10 seconds left on the shot clock, NC State head coach Kevin Keatts didn’t like what he was seeing, and called timeout, drawing up a play to get DJ Horne the ball. The timeout accomplished its task, with Horne hitting the game winner with 9 seconds left on the clock.
