Hayes leads No. 10 North Carolina State to 79-45 rout of Cincinnati

ST. THOMAS, U.S. Virgin Islands (AP) — N.C. State’s Wes Moore wanted to see a strong performance out of his players before taking on another “giant killer” in the Associated Press’ Top 25.

The Wolfpack delivered, as Madison Hayes had 16 points and 12 rebounds to help No. 10 North Carolina State roll to a 79-45 win over Cincinnati on Friday at the Paradise Jam tournament.

Hayes led six players in double figures for the Wolfpack (6-0), who have four wins by at least 30 points this season.
