🔼  Dime Piece. The women’s basketball team has its home opener tonight, and there’s a bunch of things happening you have to know about. First, the 2023 AAC Championship banner will be unveiled. Second, kids wearing a youth league jersey will get free admission. Third, you can receive a replica of the banner if you are one of the first 500 fans to arrive. So what are you waiting for? Get your tickets now!

🔼 Big Thanks. We wanted to take a second to relive the Military Appreciation game this past weekend. It was awesome to see all active and retired military members in uniform and ECU gear cheering on our football team. And what a landing by the Army Golden Knights who parachuted into the stadium!

🤔 PIRATES TRIVIA

Ready for a W. The Pirates are ready to take on USC Upstate tonight and take another dub. The women have faced the team three times in the past and won each game. The most recent matchup was in 2019, and Taniyah Thompson led all scorers.

Today’s question— how many points did Thompson have in the 2019 USC Upstate game?

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…

🏴‍☠️  We love KM. So not only is the NFL pointing out awesome things Keaton Mitchell is doing, but ECU head football coach Mike Houston is noticing his skill. Houston mentioned his excitement for Mitchell in his press conference this week.
