A homecoming of sorts for Wes Miller spoiled as UC basketball falls at East Carolina

GREENVILLE, North Carolina — A 16-point lead was not enough Wednesday night as the University of Cincinnati couldn't stop a furious second-half comeback at East Carolina, falling to the Pirates 75-71.

With just over nine minutes to go, UC lead 65-49. From there they scored just six points and boarded the bus to the airport at 17-10 (8-6 AAC).

On their final trip to East Carolina's Minges Coliseum, the University of Cincinnati was greeted by some familiar faces who made the journey to Greenville to take in Bearcats basketball.

On hand to view the contest it was Miller's father and several friends including a former coach of note, Roy Williams.
