A tale of two halves for NC State as they started the game with little energy and focus. Luckily for the Pack the Missouri Tigers didn’t have the talent to capitalize on the lackadaisical start. Even though State didn’t execute well, Cat Barber bailed them out once again as he put his team on his back offensively. Barber finished the 1st with 19 points on 6-9 shooting. It was Barber once again making a three at the buzzer, as he sized up the would be defender with a stare down step back to give State a 29-28 advantage heading into intermission.
