Sliding Pitt bids to solve woes at free-throw line vs. Wake Forest

Pittsburgh aims to stop its latest three-game losing streak when it hosts Wake Forest on Tuesday in an Atlantic Coast Conference game.

The Panthers (8-12, 1-6 ACC) sustained their sixth loss in seven games with an 81-72 setback to North Carolina State on Saturday afternoon.

Pitt made just 11 of 25 shots from the free-throw line versus the Wolfpack. The Panthers are second to last in the ACC in free throw percentage (66.3%).

"We've got to be able to make free throws," Pitt head coach Jeff Capel said after the game.
