NC State coach Kevin Keatts knew that Presbyterian would be tougher than expected Friday.
NC State had to weather the 1-2 punch of Presbyterian sophomore point guard Kory Mincy and senior wing Kobe Stewart, who combined for 48 points. NC State held steady with four players in double figures led by senior shooting guard Jayden Taylor's 19 points.
Senior center Ben Middlebrooks also was a burst of energy with 16 points in just 19 minutes of action.
NC State improved to 2-0 and will play Coastal Carolina, who has a first-year coach, on Nov. 13 at the Lenovo Center.
