Tied 3-3 in the fifth inning, Pack softball once again had a chance to secure a much-needed win over No. 18 Clemson and get back in the win column. Unfortunately, the team faltered in critical moments, leading to a disappointing 6-3 loss in the final game of the series.

Throughout the contest, NC State showed flashes of potential, but inconsistency plagued their performance.
