Valvano Sweep - 1983 NC State Blows Out Maryland

The spirit of Jim Valvano pulled off two Value Add Basketball Game in our new tournament, as his 1983 NC State team featured in the film "Survive and Advance" crushed last year's Maryland Sweet 16 team. Led by Sidney Lowe on defense, NC State won the turnover battle 24-14 in a stifling 73-43 win. Below is the box score and picture of the scoresheet.

NC State is one of six top 100 all-time teams left in our tournament of new teams we created. While we play these new teams, we have put on hold our All-Time Final 4 (1972 UCLA vs 2001 Duke and 1975 UCLA vs 1976 Indiana are the two semi finals. See the NIT Final 4 as well below.
