Biko Paris hit a pair of 3-pointers to key a late 12-0 run that helped Boston College past North Carolina State, 75-66, on Tuesday night in Chestnut Hill, Mass.

The Eagles (13-4, 3-0 ACC) trailed 60-57 before Paris hit from long range with 4:03 remaining to tie the score. Corey Raji and Paris hit 3-pointers on Boston College's next two possessions, and Reggie Jackson added three foul shots that stretched the lead to nine points at the 1:18 mark.

Boston College hit just nine of 23 shots from beyond the arc but came through when it counted, making its final three attempts of the night. Those baskets, along with North Carolina State hitting just 5 of its 12 free throws, proved to be the difference.

Jackson finished with a game-high 29 points, hitting 9-of-13 shots from the field and 8 of 9 from the foul line. Raji and Paris added 14 and 12 points, respectively.

Tracy Smith led the way for the Wolfpack (11-5, 1-1) with 18 points.
