T.J.
Warren’s
31
points
and
13
rebounds
against
the
Seminoles
are
both
career
highs,
topping
the
22
points
and
eight
rebounds
he
had
in
the
Pack’s
second
game
of
the
season,
a
72-55
win
over
Penn
State
in
the
Puerto
Rico
Tip-Off
on
Nov.
15.
His
31
points
ties
J.J.
Hickson
(William
&
Mary,
11/15/07)
and
Scott
Wood
(1/12/10)
for
the
third-best
scoring
total
an
NC
State
freshman.
Ernie
Myers
holds
the
freshman
record
for
points
with
35
points
versus
Duke
(1/26/83).
Warren
has
scored
in
double
figures
in
three
of
the
Pack’s
last
four
games,
helping
State
to
3-1
mark
over
that
span.
He
set
a
career
mark
for
field
goals
made
(12)
and
attempted
(15)
against
the
Seminoles.
He
also
posted
his
first
career
double-double
with
13
rebounds.
His
two
3-pointers
gave
him
more
than
one
for
the
first
time
since
the
Pack’s
84-62
victory
over
Norfolk
State
on
Dec.
15.
It
is
the
fifth
time
Warren
has
scored
20
or
more
points
this
season.
Since
his
return
to
the
court
following
a
two-game
hiatus
due
to
an
ankle
injury
sustained
at
Virginia
on
Jan.
29,
Lorenzo
Brown
has
a
total
of
39
points
in
his
last
three
games
and
is
averaging
13.0
points
per
game
over
that
stretch.
Brown
had
nine
assists
in
his
33
minutes
of
action.
Scott
Wood’s
3-pointer
at
the
3:03
mark
of
the
first
half
was
the
300th
of
his
Wolfpack
career.
With
three
in the
game,
Wood
now
needs
19
to
tie
NC
State
all-time
leading
scorer
Rodney
Monroe
(322)
for
the
most
in
program
history.
NC
State
won
its
19th
game
of
the
season
on
Tuesday,
doing
so
in
26
games,
which
is
four
games
sooner
than
it
took
the
Pack
achieve
that
victory
mark
last
year.
NC
State’s
18-point
margin
of
victory
is
its
largest
in
ACC
play
this
season.
