NC State Basketball Tickets
Everybody knows about the ACC’s prowess on the basketball court, but one team in that conference that gets unfairly lost in the shuffle is the NC State Wolfpack. With multiple national championships and countless conference titles, it’s never been easy to find cheap NC State basketball tickets. Even if the program is sometimes overshadowed by its in-state rivals, the Wolfpack fan base takes great pride in NC State’s accomplishments. More importantly, the fanbase is always optimistic about the future, keeping last-minute NC State basketball tickets in high demand.
Southern Kings
Once upon a time, NC State was arguably the best basketball team in the South. Under head coach Everett Case, the Wolfpack won the Southern Conference regular-season and tournament titles in five straight years from 1947 to 1951. That success instantly grew when NC State joined the ACC in 1953 and proceeded to win the regular-season and tournament titles in the same year, three times in its first six seasons in the league.
Two Titles
NC State rose to prominence again in the 1970s under coach Norm Sloan. Despite inheriting a struggling program, Sloan soon turned the Wolfpack into one of the nation’s best teams. The Wolfpack went undefeated during the 1972-73 season. Despite being ineligible for the NCAA Tournament that year, they followed it up the next season by going 30-1 and winning the first national championship in program history. Less than a decade later, Jim Valvano orchestrated one of the most unlikely national championship runs in NCAA history, giving NC State the 1983 title.
On the Cusp
The post-Valvano era was difficult for the Wolfpack. One coach after another found it difficult to sustain success in the mighty ACC. However, NC State has never stayed down for long and has made a few Sweet 16 runs during the 2000s. Even in one of the deepest conferences college basketball has ever seen, the Wolfpack remains relevant and ready to claw their way back to the top.
