North Carolina State returned to its own haunt to get back on track.
Ryan Harrow scored 20 points and the Wolfpack remained perfect at Reynolds Coliseum under coach Sidney Lowe with a 79-60 victory over South Carolina Upstate on Saturday in a non-conference matchup.
North Carolina State (4-3) played its home games at Reynolds until moving to the RBC Center in 1999. The Wolfpack are now 6-0 in games played at Reynolds Coliseum under Lowe.
NC state shot 53 percent (33-of-63) from the field led by Harlow, who was 10-of-13. Lorenzo Brown scored 17 points and C.J. Leslie added 13 for the Wolfpack, who snapped a two-game losing skid.
Babatunde Olomuwiya scored 14 points and Torrey Craig and Chandler Hash each added 12 for the Spartans (2-7), who had won two straight since opening the season with six straight losses.
A freshman, Craig entered Saturday as the only Spartan averaging more than eight points per game at 11.1. Even though the Spartans had three players in double figures against the Wolfpack, the balance was not enough to overcome a 35-22 halftime deficit.
