NC State vs. TCU: Box score, stats, and summary feat. Hailey Van Lith (Nov. 17)

No. 13-ranked NC State Wolfpack fell just short on the road to the TCU Horned Frogs 76-73.

This game was close throughout the four quarters, but it ended as Aziaha James missed a game-tying 3-pointer. These teams were able to play well, but the Horned Frogs feasted off the announced 3,320 attendees to hold onto their lead in a tough fourth quarter.

The Wolfpack (2-2) will likely drop after losing their second game this season and need to get more production out of their starting lineup. The Horned Frogs (4-0) remain undefeated and only used a seven-woman rotation to pull off the victory.

Let's dive deeper into the box score to see how far the game has gone.
