63 - 50 NC State’s magical Final Four run finally ended in a 63-50 loss to Purdue. While NC State defensively kept Zach Edey reasonably in check, they left so many points out there on missed mid-range jumpers, 3 pt shots, you get the idea. It wasn’t meant to be for the Wolfpack. The season ended with an ACC Title and Final Four, and that makes for a really special and historical season for NC State.
Purdue defeated NC State 63-50 to advance to the 2024 NCAA March Madness championship game. The Boilermakers were led by a 20 point, 12 rebound performance from Zach Edey. Watch the full game highlights here.
