Impact Even though seven NC State players scored in double digits in this dominant win, McNeil was one of two -- alongside Darrion Williams -- who surpassed the 15-point plateau. McNeil didn't do much outside of scoring, but he should continue to have a big role in the rotation as long as he continues to find a way to score the rock consistently.
