At N.C. State, if you're doing something that hasn't been done since the late Kay Yow was coaching, you're doing something right.
For the first time in 11 years, and the nine since Yow's passing, N.C. State's women's basketball team is heading back to the Sweet 16 after a 74-60 victory over former ACC nemesis Maryland in the Round of 32 on Saturday.
Yow, who died of breast cancer in 2009, took the Wolfpack to the third round of the NCAA Women's Basketball Tournament in 2007. She's and a statue just outside Reynolds Coliseum.
The fourth-seeded Wolfpack will play on Friday in the Kansas City regional semifinal against either 9-seed Oklahoma State (21-10) or 1-seed Mississippi State (33-1).
