ESPN RECAPPerson, WRs help NC State top Virginia 35-21 in ACC opener
RALEIGH, N.C. -- North Carolina State's offense is still finding playmakers ready for bigger roles. Freshman Ricky Person, Jr. ran for a season-high 108 yards while sophomore receiver Emeka Emezie had his own big day to help North Carolina State beat Virginia 35-21 on Saturday, claiming its Atlantic Coast Conference opener along with a 4-0 start. Person hadn't played since the opener due to a hamstring issue, but provided big-play burst to the Wolfpack's grind-it-out ground game. And Emezie gave NFL prospect Ryan Finley yet another receiving target at an already stocked position. "Good teams have good depth," Finley said, "and that's what you're seeing from us." Person ran six times for 5 yards in the opening win against James Madison and hadn't played since -- and he's still not fully past the hamstring issue.
