Wake Forest continues picking up elusive victories as it moves up the Atlantic Coast Conference standings.

The Demon Deacons (16-4, 6-3 ACC) will look to continue bolstering their NCAA Tournament resume when they host Boston College (8-9, 3-4) on Monday night in Winston-Salem, N.C.

After beating Georgia Tech on the road for the first time since 2004 and snapping a nine-game losing streak against Virginia, Wake Forest recorded its most lopsided win against North Carolina since 2002 with a 98-76 romp at home on Saturday.

Jake LaRavia had a career-best 31 points and a season-high 10 rebounds to lead the Demon Deacons, who have won three straight games and five of their last six.

Alondes Williams, the only player in the nation averaging at least 20 points, five rebounds and five assists per game, scored 23 points and had six boards.

"Tonight was a signature win for this program," Wake Forest coach Steve Forbes said. "We had great balance on offense with scoring coming from multiple guys."

The Eagles, who are coming off a 68-63 win over Virginia Tech on Saturday, have won two of their past three games after losing five in a row.

James Karnik scored a career-high 26 points and Makai Ashton-Langford added 18 as the duo accounted for 65 percent of Boston College's scoring. T.J. Bickerstaff, who had seven points, 10 rebounds and four assists, hit a pair of free throws late to hold off the Hokies' rally.

Boston College outrebounded Virginia Tech 38-23 as Karnik also collected nine rebounds.

"I use the analogy with the guys all the time that a really good football team can't win games if they can't run the ball," BC coach Earl Grant said. "Compare it to basketball, you have to throw the ball inside. You have to be able to paint-touch it with your big guys. You have to offensive rebound. You have to have some paint baskets."
