The game will be shown on Fox Sports Southeast and affiliated channels. The Wolfpack Women are coming off an emotional 76-68 victory over UNC on Sunday, in which 6'5" sophomore center Elissa Cunane regained the conference lead in double-doubles, with a 22 point, 11-rebound performance, and avenging its lone loss of the season thus far. Clemson is on a two-game losing streak since its last conference win (over Duke), falling to Virginia Tech 71-50 in its latest contest. Thursday night's meeting will be the 89th meeting between the two teams, with NC State leading the series, 58-30. NC State has beaten Clemson 10 consecutive times; the Tigers' last win in the series came during the 2010-2011 season. Last year, NC State edged an NCAAT-bound Clemson team, 54-51. The Tigers are 18-17 against NC State on its home floor. Although I shouldn't (I have a project to finish up before work Friday morning), I have had this game circled on my calendar for quite some time and do plan to attend in person. Guess I'll just stay up late when I get home after the game; it's the only time this season I'm guaranteed to see NC State in person while they are within a short driving distance (I live about 45 minutes from Clemson).
