A WIN TUESDAY WOULD
• Be the 537th win in program history (536-467-104)

• Be Kiefer's 36th victory at NC State (35-32-16)
• Be NC State's third non-conference victory in a row
SERIES HISTORY (NC State leads 10-4-1)
• Tuesday marks the 16th overall meeting between NC State and High Point. It will be their first matchup against one another in the George Kiefer era.
• The match will be the Pack's eighth-straight home game against High Point. In total, NC State is 8-3-1 against High Point when playing on its home field.

LAST TIME OUT
• NC State battled through 110 minutes of scoreless action at Syracuse on Friday night to round out a three-game road streak and pick up another point in ACC play.
• The Wolfpack showed tremendous resiliency, playing with just 10 men for the final 34 minutes of the outing after drawing a red card with 14 minutes left in regulation.
• Goalkeeper Leon Krapf made five saves in the match.
• The outing was the second overtime draw for the Pack this season, as it also earned a 1-1 decision against Wake Forest two weeks ago.

• The Pack's 138 shot attempts have been distributed among 16 different players, led by 24 strikes from Henrique Santos.
• Ten different players have found the back of the net in 2021, with Luke Hille's four goals pacing the team.
