CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Charlotte women's basketball held visiting ECU to 26.5 percent shooting, the lowest by any opponent this season, and used a plus-20 (59-39) margin on the glass to grind out a 52-46 victory over the Pirates Saturday afternoon inside Halton Arena. It marks the lowest points total for the Niners in a win since March 1, 2018, when they handed Old Dominion a 51-43 setback.
