Today, we're looking at volleyball entering the postseason.

What else are we mixing into today's Brew?

🏐 Volleyball isn’t over yet!

​🏴‍☠️ And much, much more!

🔼 Bid Bound. You might want to sit down for this because we’ve just made history here at ECU!! The volleyball team is entering postseason play for the first time in program history after earning an at-large bid to the 2023 National Invitational Volleyball Championship. You can watch the Pirates, The Citadel, Georgia Southern and Winthrop right here in Greenville starting on Friday. See the schedule below for tickets and match times.

🔼 Welcome Everyone. While everyone in America might know about Thanksgiving, our student-athletes who come from abroad may not. To help the international students learn and enjoy the holiday, ECU Chancellor Philip Rogers had an open house for the international Pirates for Thanksgiving.

🤔 PIRATES TRIVIA

Super Cool Season. ECU volleyball had so much happen this season. The team had its first 20-win season in a couple of years. This was also the fifth 20-win season in school history.

Today’s question— when was ECU volleyball’s last 20-win season?
