Good morning. Wait! Before you scroll, name one player from both the women’s and men’s basketball teams. Got it? I bet you guessed the two who just won conference weekly honors. See if you did by scrolling down.

What else are we mixing into today's Brew?

🏀 McNeal earns weekly honors
🏀 Pettiford earns AAC Honor Roll
​🏴‍☠️ And much, much more!

📈 STOCK UP

🔼 AA-mazing. She shines bright on the court and the American Athletic Conference notices because Danae McNeal was named the AAC Player of the Week. McNeal averaged 24 points, four rebounds and six steals in just two games last week. Her performance against Hampton made history for ECU. She is the first player since 2019 to score 25+ points and have 7+ steals in a game.

🔼 Rollin’ Out. The red carpet is rolled out for Bobby Pettiford. The junior guard earned the AAC Honor Roll for his excellent performance last week. Pettiford hit a career-high 24 points in the game against UNCW. He shot 8-13 in the field and 3-5 from outside the arc. So far this season, Pettiford has a total of 84 points.
