Good morning. It’s been a while since football has had a game at Dowdy-Ficklen Stadium, so here’s a refresher on our game-day traditions. See you tomorrow!

What else are we mixing into today's Brew?

🎙️ Sup Dogs Podcast
🏊 Swim and dive schedule drop
​🏴‍☠️ And much, much more!

🔼 Binge Worthy. There’s a new podcast you need to add to your playlist called Sup Dogs Live. Get ready to binge every Thursday from 5-7 p.m. There’ll be weekly ECU athletes featured on the show to tell you what’s going on behind the scenes of their sports.

🎙️ Stream the podcast on ECU Sports Network’s YouTube, Facebook, and Twitter.

🔼 Dive in. The Pirates are ready to abandon ship and make their way through the water for swim and dive season. The women’s schedule just dropped, and there are four home events at Minges Natatorium you can attend. Be sure to keep an eye on the 10 newcomers and 18 returners in the pool.

🏊 Look at the schedule for the dates and times of each meet.

🤔 PIRATES TRIVIA

Time for Another W. The Pirates are taking on Marshall tomorrow, so let’s take a look back at our encounters with the Herd. We’ve played Marshall a total of 16 times and have won quite a few games against them.

Today’s question—how many times have we beat Marshall?

⏪ ICYMI

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…

🏴‍☠️ Season Premiere. In the football game against Michigan, 20 Pirates saw their first game action. Javious Bond was one of those players, and he recorded 31 reception yards and 16 rushing yards.

🏴‍☠️ Episode Two. For the football team’s second game, it will be at home against Marshall. Offensive lineman Dustyn Hall expects there to be a full stadium tomorrow because he remembers even in the worst weather conditions at a Thursday night game, the crowd was still electrifying. Read what other players love about the crowd at Dowdy-Ficklen here.
