Yesterday a group of international students from NC State got to experience a unique part of American culture — college football. Through the Office of International Affairs, they toured the Murphy Center and met with Coach Tom O’Brien and the Wolfpack players. Thanks to NC State’s Web Communications team for the video.
Dick Christy '58 in a publicity shot in 1957. An All-American halfback, Christy was the ACC Athlete of the Year as a senior. He's perhaps best remembered for scoring all of NC State's 29 points in the Wolfpack's ACC-title-clinching 29-26 win over South Carolina in 1957.

The N&O has nearly 100 photos from Meet the Pack Day this weekend, including some nice shots of Carter-Finley Stadium and the new field. Looks like it was a great turnout. Can’t wait until Thursday night!
NC State Chancellor Jim Woodward stopped in at football practice recently to talk with the players and coaches. In our “Seven Questions with Jim Woodward” post from July, he said something to us that he repeats here: “[An athletics program] is a window through which so many of the public sees the university.”

I was looking for some information on NC State football this afternoon and came across an NCSU Libraries site — NC State Sports, Illustrated — with lots of great images of football and basketball programs from 1931 to 1972. From the looks of it, the site has been around a while, but this is the first time I’ve seen it. Check out a half dozen other covers after the jump. And if you’re wondering why there’s a Martian on the Clemson/State program, the NCSU Libraries site attributes it to “the nation’s fascination with outer space.” (more…)
