With State ahead just 69-67 with more than two minutes to play, Warren fittingly scored four of the last five points of the game.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He made so many shots one after another and the other guys recognized that,&#8221; Gottfried said. &#8220;It was still a great team win because so many guys did so many things.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>State, now 18-12 overall and 8-9 in the ACC, turned the ball over just six times and outrebounded Pitt 35-23.<\/p>\n<p>The last Wolfpack player to score 40 or more points was Rodney Monroe in 1991.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TJ Warren can carry a team and NC State needed carrying as the Pack seeks an NCAA tournament bid.
