📈 STOCK UP

🔼 Strike Me Pink. The soccer team does it again. The Pirates got their eighth win of the season and seventh shutout. Four ladies scored against Temple— Sydney Schnell, Annabelle Abbott, Jazmin Ferguson, and Lucy Fazackerley. Schnell’s goal was assisted by goalie Maeve English, and this is the first assist by a Pirate keeper since Oct. 22, 2017. Ferguson had a great header off of the corner kick from Sierra Lowery. ECU outshot Temple 15-7 and will look for another win at their next game against Memphis on Oct. 11.

🔼 Sneak Peek. Ever wonder what the ECU men’s basketball team is up to at practice? Your chance to get a glimpse of the team is here! Come out to the open practice on Oct. 12 at 5 p.m. And right after, you can head to the football game against SMU. The first 200 students through Gate 3 will get free pizza, and the athletes will be signing autographs following practice.

We like our Brew hot n’ fresh. But we’re not opposed to you reheating your cup. Here’s some news you may have missed recently…

🏴‍☠️ Blackout. Pirates football is back in the black uniforms, and they are looking good. They’re looking so good that you should put these wallpapers on your phone screen. The next game is Night of the Boneyard at home against SMU on Oct. 12.

🏴‍☠️ More Pink. If you weren’t able to make it out to the soccer game last night to get a free pink shirt, volleyball has you covered. Volleyball takes on Tulane tonight at 6 p.m., and the first 150 fans will receive a pink t-shirt for the team’s Dig Pink game.
