Postgame Quotes

ECU Head Coach Mack McCarthy
"I thought it was really good that the guys got a little bit more of an award for their perseverance. We have been blown out a few times, we had a four game losing streak, and a five game losing streak, and bounced back in the middle of that to have a couple of good outings against Tulsa, and Southern Miss."

"I think we have just played two of the best games of the year. It will be interesting to see if we can build on that and go win on the road."

"We have proven we can continue to improve as the conference season goes on. Now we have to prove that we can win on an enemy court."

Senior Darrell Jenkins
"I'm never going to forget this place. I have a lot of memories. I made 14 extra brothers, they're always going be in my heart."

"The crowd definitely played a sixth man role today."

Senior Cory Farmer
"Having a two game winning streak and going into the next game, and getting those next two wins, that'll be huge going on a four game winning streak into the tournament."

"At practice, we have been going at each other more aggressively and physically. Coach says we always win a game not the day of the game, but two days before in practice. We win the game how hard we play in practice."

Junior Sam Hinnant
"It was really just for the seniors tonight. We talked about this game for the past week."
