RALEIGH, N.C. - A new installment in Reynolds Coliseum will give Wolfpack fans a chance to celebrate the historic runs of NC State's women's and men's basketball to the 2024 NCAA Final Four.
The hardwood court displays from the women's Final Four in Cleveland and the men's championships in Phoenix will be displayed in the Grand Hall of Reynolds throughout the 2024-25 season.
The women's basketball team is coming off a historical 31-7 season, which was highlighted with the program's first NCAA Final Four appearance since 1998, a program-tying nine ranked wins and a final AP No. 4 ranking. Men's basketball is coming off its first ACC Tournament Championship since 1987 after winning five games in five days as well as its first NCAA Final Four appearance since 1983. Last season marked the first time in NC State history the Pack was represented in the Final Four on both the men's and women's side.
Following the season, the court displays, donated by Connor Sports - the Official Court of the NCAA since 2006, and Royalwood Associates of Raleigh, will be moved to their permanent homes. The women's display will be hung, along with the court replica from the 1998 Final Four above the Grand Hall in Reynolds, while the men's will move to the Dail Basketball Facility.
