Red & White for Life, NC States Alumni Association blog, is tracking coach Kellie Harper.

As part of our ongoing series “A Coach’s First Season,” NC State magazine joined the Wolfpack for their bus ride up to Norfolk and back. The latest installment includes

• a complete, almost hour-by-hour breakdown of the trip here with several photos above and a few highlights (with one item in particular that will stir up the Wolfpack faithful);
• notes and highlights from the game against ODU interspersed with quotes;
• a short interview with Bonae Holston, who talks about playing before a hometown crowd;
• an interview with junior forward Tia Bell, who has come off the bench in the past two games to score in double figures and power crucial runs;
• an interview with freshman guard Marissa Kastanek, who has scored in double digits in four of the Wolfpack’s five games this season and who talks about her first away game; and
• an interview with Coach Harper, who talks about the ODU game and what she’s taking away from her first road game.
