Doing it all for a good cause

The East Carolina women's basketball team was back at it this weekend, giving its time to a very worthy cause - the Leo Jenkins Cancer Center.

There were two events held over the last few days: The Pink Ribbon 5K and the Leo Jenkins Breast Cancer Awareness Dinner. Coach Macy and the whole staff were on hand to help promote the prevention of this terrible disease.

















On a side note, don't forget to RSVP to Brenda Perkins in the women's basketball office for the preseason potluck dinner TOMORROW NIGHT. There is an open practice session beginning at 2:30 in Minges Coliseum as well.

Helping out the Greenville Community

Our women's basketball team receives tremendous support from the Greenville and eastern North Carolina communities, having led Conference USA in attendance for three-straight seasons.

The ladies took some time to give back to the place they call home by heading to the Tar River Saturday morning to help clean up the area. The Daily Reflector was on hand to document the event so check out the article below!

Recapping "Meet the Pirates"

The men's and women's basketball teams came together at Minges Coliseum Saturday to give the Pirate Nation a chance to mingle with the players and coaches. There were autographs, games, three-point shooting contests and more.

Coach Macy took some time to speak with the media relations staff at the event. In case you missed it, here is a video complete with interviews and highlights.

Camera Ready

With practice already underway, the Pirates gathered Wednesday night to take a variety of pictures for the upcoming season. They were even joined by some of last year's honorary coaches. Check out some candid pictures below.
