N.C. Central shocks N.C. State 82-72 in overtime

 — North Carolina’s loss on Sunday and Duke’s close call on Tuesday were warnings for N.C. State.

An 82-72 overtime loss to N.C. Central on Wednesday was a dose of reality for the Wolfpack.

“Anything is possible, that’s just how it is in college basketball,” N.C. State junior Ralston Turner said. “On any night, anybody can get beat.”

With 29 points from senior guard Jeremy Ingram, N.C. Central knocked off N.C. State for its first win over an ACC team.

The Eagles (3-1) had lost their first 13 games against the ACC since making the transition to Division I before the 2007-08 season. They had lost the previous four games to N.C. State by an average of 23 points.
