RALEIGH, N.C. – The NC State gymnastics team returns to action on Sunday, Feb. 25, as the Wolfpack will travel to Pitt for its final ACC meet of the regular season.
The Pack is coming off its best performance of the season, after a 197.575-196.000 victory over Clemson on Feb. 17 secured the first-ever ACC Regular Season Championship for the Wolfpack.
NC State's team total of 197.575 against the Tigers marked the program's second-highest score all-time while additionally becoming the best mark of the Kim Landrus era. The Wolfpack registered season-high event scores on vault, bars, and floor, while Emily Shepard set a new program record with an all-around total of 39.750, which also accounts for the highest all-around total of any gymnast from an ACC school ever, eclipsing the previous mark of 39.725 that was set in 2004.
Pitt enters Sunday's matchup having just dropped a dual meet at North Carolina, with the Panthers falling 196.650-196.150 to the Tar Heels. 196.150 is Pitt's second-highest team total of the year, with its best coming in its lone ACC win on Feb. 2 in a 196.525-194.875 win over North Carolina.
The Pack and Panthers met earlier this season in NC State's home opener, with the Wolfpack claiming its first win of the 2024 campaign in a 196.500-194.100 victory.
Sunday's contest will be the final nationally televised regular season meet for NC State, with the Wolfpack's four meets on the ACC Network the most of any team in the league.
