Pirate Brew 11/6: Almost Held'em

Today, we're recapping the football game vs. Tulane.

Good morning. You all set a record for the volleyball program! Friday night’s game had 1,468 fans in attendance, which set a program record. Thanks for the support, Pirate fans. 🫶

What else are we mixing into today's Brew?

🏈 Recap vs. Tulane
🏊 Still undefeated
​🏴‍☠️ And much, much more!

📈 STOCK UP

🔼 Close Call. Being that Tulane is ranked No. 21, the Pirates played a great game and held the Green Wave to only 13 points. The Pirates had 10 points of their own after a field goal and Gerald Green’s touchdown in the first quarter. Tulane tied it in the second and had made a field goal in the fourth to win it. So, what happened to ECU? Our offense just couldn’t keep producing in the final quarters.

🔼 Big Wave. Women’s swim and dive waved Campbell goodbye with a 155-101 dub. The Pirates won 10 individual events and had three multiple winners. Danielle McCarthy won her first collegiate event in the 1,000 free. Brynna Wolfe, Kaylee Hamblin, and Sara Kalawska each won two events. The women are now 6-0 this season and will compete in the WVU Invitational next on Nov. 16-18.

🤔 PIRATES TRIVIA

Already Better. Now that you know the swim and dive team has a 6-0 standing, let’s see if you can compare that to previous seasons. The Pirates have won six meets in a row, which is already better than last season.

Today’s question— what was the team’s longest win streak last season?
