CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. – The Boston College women's basketball team fell to No. 9 NC State, 85-69, on Sunday afternoon in the second ACC game of the season.
Â
Junior forward Emma Guy and freshman Makayla Dickens led the Eagles with 17 points. Guy shot 8-for-11 from the floor and grabbed seven boards, while Dickens went 4-of-7 from beyond the arc and grabbed 10 rebounds. Freshman Marnelle Garraud pitched in with 13 points.
Â
Trailing by five late in the first period, the Eagles took advantage of a Wolfpack turnover to cut the deficit to one possession. Junior forward Georgia Pineau knocked down an inside jumper, but NC State ended the first quarter with a 14-0 run.
Â
Sophomore Sydney Lowery and junior guard Taylor Ortlepp (8 points, 6 assists) began the second quarter with back-to-back lay-ups, the Eagles were unable to quiet a potent Wolfpack offense. NC State went on a 6-0 run to build a 16-point lead and did not look back.
