We Are The Wolf: An Intimate Look at the Legendary Wolfpack Dynasty
![Jese Leos](https://read.bookgemstone.com/author/will-ward.jpg)
4.3 out of 5 In the heart of Raleigh, North Carolina, a basketball dynasty was born. North Carolina State University, once an underdog in the competitive world of college basketball, rose to prominence under the visionary leadership of coach Jim Valvano. Valvano, known affectionately as "Jimmy V," possessed an infectious charisma and an unwavering belief in his players. The Wolfpack's journey began in the mid-1970s, when Valvano took over a struggling program. With a limited budget and modest facilities, he set out to transform the team's fortunes. Valvano's innovative coaching style and relentless pursuit of excellence ignited a spark within his players. At the heart of the Wolfpack's success was a core group of talented players who embodied Valvano's relentless spirit. David Thompson, a 6'4" guard with exceptional athleticism and scoring prowess, led the way. His electrifying performance led to him being named a three-time All-American and the 1975 National Player of the Year. Joining Thompson in the Wolfpack's formidable lineup was Monte Towe, a skilled center known for his rebounding and shot-blocking abilities. Towe's tenacious defense and leadership played a crucial role in anchoring the team. One of the most significant contributions of the Wolfpack dynasty was their revolutionary adoption of the three-point shot. In the early days of college basketball, the three-point line was not a common feature. However, Valvano recognized the potential of this long-range weapon. Under Valvano's guidance, the Wolfpack became one of the first teams to consistently utilize the three-point shot. They practiced diligently, honing their skills from beyond the arc. The three-pointer became a significant part of their offensive arsenal, giving them an advantage over opponents who were still hesitant to venture outside the paint. The culmination of the Wolfpack's journey came in 1983, when they achieved their ultimate triumph. Facing off against the heavily favored University of Houston in the NCAA Championship game, the Wolfpack underdog rallied for a historic upset. Lorenzo Charles, a talented forward, secured the game-winning rebound and putback with just seconds remaining. The Wolfpack bench erupted in jubilation as they had defied all odds to capture the NCAA Championship title. The Wolfpack's legacy extends far beyond their championship victory. Their innovative style of play and their unwavering pursuit of excellence continue to inspire generations of basketball players and fans. Jim Valvano's indomitable spirit and "Never Give Up" attitude have become timeless lessons in leadership and perseverance. Today, the Wolfpack remains a prominent force in college basketball, consistently competing for ACC championships and NCAA Tournament appearances. The program's rich history and passionate fan base serve as a testament to the lasting impact of the legendary Wolfpack dynasty. The Origins of a Dynasty
