Williams, Copeland Lead Balanced Scoring Attack to Send NC State Past Syracuse

On Tuesday, North Carolina State beat Syracuse 88-68, with Quadir Copeland scoring 19 points and nine assists, fueling the Wolfpack's third straight win.
With the Wolfpack hitting 51.4% in the second half, Copeland called it a revenge game after leaving Syracuse, which struggled offensively at 39% shooting.
After Donnie Freeman's layup made it 55-51, Copeland responded with a three-point play and foul shots to push the lead to 60-51, with NC State staying ahead by double digits over the final 5:16.
Syracuse will try to halt its slide on Saturday when it hosts Notre Dame after losing again, intensifying pressure on coach Adrian Autry who has faced boos and chants for his firing.
Copeland's postgame celebration included visible flexing by his father, and Syracuse football player Calvin Russell made a late debut converting a three-point play; N.C. State travels to Wake Forest on Saturday after winning five of six.
