After NC State women’s basketball made its second Final Four appearance last season, the Wolfpack released its non-conference schedule for the upcoming winter Thursday. 

The Wolfpack will play eight of its 11 non-conference games inside Reynolds Coliseum, while also playing in the Pink Flamingo Championship in the Bahamas with a neutral contest in Charlotte as well. 

NC State will host Anderson for an exhibition on Oct. 29 before it tips off the season against East Tennessee on Nov. 5 at Reynolds. The Pack will then square off with defending NCAA Champion South Carolina in the Ally Tipoff at the Spectrum Center in Charlotte on Nov. 10. 

The Pack will then host Kent State on Nov. 14 before traveling to TCU on Nov. 17. NC State will also welcome Coastal Carolina to Raleigh on Nov. 21, while Ole Miss will visit for the ACC/SEC Challenge on Dec. 5. 

NC State will round out the non-conference slate with three straight home games against mid-major foes. Old Dominion will visit Reynolds on Dec. 8, while Davidson is set to make the trek to Raleigh on Dec. 11 and James Madison will play the Wolfpack on Dec. 19.

Tweets of the day

NC State football has a clear goal going into the 2024 season. 

A behind the scenes look at some fun Wolfpack quarterback Grayson McCall had at ACC Media Day.

Quote of the day

McCall transferred to NC State for his final year of eligibility. He is looking forward to a fresh start in Raleigh after winning three Sun Belt Player of the Year awards at Coastal Carolina. 

“It’s extremely refreshing to be in a new spot,” McCall said. “The pressure’s always there, but it’s a little bit off. All the lights aren’t on me like it was for three years. Definitely refreshing and it’s been great so far.”
