Undefeated in front of its home crowd this season, packwomensbball (18-4, 10-1 ACC) looked nearly unstoppable in the first quarter, scoring 24 points on 71.4% shooting while holding the Blue Devils (17-5, 8-2 ACC) to just 17 points on 35.3% shooting. With a seven-point lead early, it looked as though NC State was in line for a statement blowout victory on such an important night.
Luckily for Wolfpack fans, NC State holds claim to one of the best scorers in the nation — senior guard Aziaha James. Now, James was coming off her worst performance of the season in a seven-point outing against Wake Forest, but when her team needed her most, the Wolfpack’s most trusted player stepped up.
“Duke and Carolina,” James said. “Them blues, they don’t sit right with me. I bring my all every time we play them. We just don’t like blues.”
