GREENVILLE, N.C. Reggie Gallaspy doesn’t get many carries, but when he does he makes them count.The NC State sophomore running back finally got his time to shine in the second quarter against ECU. With the Wolfpack trailing, 12-0, Gallaspy looked to be heading out of bounds with two ECU defenders set chasing him down. Instead, Gallaspy rerouted and bulldozed his way through Travon Simmons. He then finished the play with authority, rushing another 15 yards for the touchdown.Early candidate for run of the day. #Wolfpack RB Reggie Gallaspy runs through #ECU for the TD. pic.twitter.com/PdWAFej4t7 Brad Crawford (@BCrawford247) September 10, 2016
Gallaspy’s crushing blow sent waves through NC State Twitter.Gallaspy rolling!! Beautiful run start to finish. Blocking was perfect at point. Strong stiff arm after vision cutback. Beautiful football. Michael Felder (@InTheBleachers) September 10, 2016
After watching that Reggie Gallaspy run for NCSU in which he lowered the shoulder on a poor defender, there’s no way he’s the listed 212lbs Bryan Fischer (@BryanDFischer) September 10, 2016
Gallaspy with the best run of his college career. He barrels through defenders for a 37-yard TD. NC State strikes back. Pack Pride (@PackPride) September 10, 2016
The 37-yard touchdown completely turned the tide for NC State, who took a 20-19 lead into the half. In a rivalry game where every point counts, Gallaspy’s run made up for a lot of miscues by NC State throughout the first two quarters of play.
