Dontrez Styles was the only Wolfpack player to score in double figures with 17 points -- the same figure as the team's other four starters combined.Wolfpack freshman Paul McNeil, who scored a career-high 24 points in NC State's most recent game, was limited to two points on 1-of-4 shooting in this one.Syracuse jumped out to a 13-3 lead just over five minutes in, thanks to five points from Davis and four from Lampkin.Shortly thereafter, the Orange went on a 7-0 burst -- featuring five points from Chris Bell -- to turn a 21-12 lead into a 16-point advantage. The Wolfpack chipped away at the deficit, but Syracuse still led 38-25 at the break.Lampkin led all players with nine points and eight rebounds in the first half. No player for NC State had more than six points in the opening period as the team shot just 30 percent from the field and made only 2 of 13 shots from beyond the arc.Syracuse went ahead 52-33 about six minutes into the second half on Bell's fast-break layup. However, NC State responded by scoring 13 of the next 16 points, capped by Marcus Hill's layup, to get within 55-46 with 9:20 to play.Davis countered with a bucket for the hosts, and after Styles's 3-pointer, the Orange scored seven straight points to restore a 15-point cushion. Starling scored the final five points in that burst.Syracuse led by as many as 17 points down the stretch as its three-game losing streak came to an end.--Field Level Media
