Maryland completes N.C. State sweep in dramatic finish
Maryland erased a 18 point second half gap to beat North Carolina State 97 96 as Brad Davis provided late heroics in a game that featured All American forward David Thompson and a tense finish. Davis scored 18 and John Lucas 12 while Thompson totaled 38 points to lead State. Maryland built an early 18 point lead before Lucas fouled out and Tom Roy’s ejection sparked a Wolfpack rally that fell just short.
