Following DJ Horne NC State guard who scored 22 points who led the way offensively for NC State in 81-67 win over UT Martin in North Carolina’s state capital NC State Head Coach Kevin Keatts had this to say had this to say about his team!

“Good game for us and I’ll tell you why,”“These are nerve-racking games that you play with finals and our guys being pulled 20 different ways. “So it’s good. I thought we ramped it up when we needed to. I thought DJ Horne was a big part of that spark, making some shots, got really hot and did some good things.”

“I think we’re getting better and it looks like we’re playing better together,”

I thought for the last three games our offensive transition has been really good. We’re sharing the ball, we’re kicking the ball ahead. I think defensively, we’re starting to click a little more and we don’t have as many breakdowns as we had early in the season.”
