Pirate Family Connection

Your East Carolina women's basketball team is set to host UTEP tonight at 7 p.m. Blue Edwards, former Pirate and NBA great, will be there to support his daughters as he is for every home game. The Daily Reflector wrote a feature which looks at the relationship and common bond the twins have with their father. You can read it by following the link below.

During all but one of East Carolina’s home women’s basketball games this season, Blue Edwards has sat in the same spot inside Minges Coliseum — behind the scorer’s table, about three rows up.

Alumni Weekend 2012

We had a great time this weekend welcoming back the people who helped put East Carolina Women's Basketball on the map - our alumni! There was a catered dinner the night before the UAB game and the alums were able to enjoy the battle with the Blazers from courtside seats. The 30th anniversary of the 1981-82 Pirate team, which qualified for the first-ever NCAA Women's Tournament, was also recognized and celebrated during halftime. Check out the pictures!
