The NCSU men’s basketball team defeated the #6 ranked Virginia Cavaliers [90-80] at the ESA on Wednesday night. Forward Kenny Inge led the way with 29 points and 9 rebounds, including several awesome dunks. Damien Wilkins played well, scoring 21 points, and Anthony Grundy broke out of his recent slump to pour in 12 points. After the game, the NCSU students rushed the court to celebrate. Check out the celebration.

Man that game was sooo freaking great. Seemed everyone finally came together and played as one unit, not to mention we actually FINISHED this time!!! The coolest thing was rushing that court. Gosh it felt soo good. Now hopefully on Sun. we can beat Duke and then go raid Hillsborough St.

Looks like Herb may keep his job if this keeps up. The work those guys put in in practice really showed up last night. Taking charges and playing tough against the press (which has been keeping them from holding their big leads) come to my mind as huge factors in this game, as well as offensive rebounds. Good job, guys!

It was a good win, but they're still holding the ball too much, and seem stunted by the zone defense.

They're holding the ball too much? They scored 90 points. They must have been doing something right offensively.
