For the East Carolina University men’s basketball team, the 2019-2020 season will be an opportunity to start fresh after a tough 2018-2019 campaign.
“It is a more spirited group. There’s not a remembrance of how last year was for the most part, you’ve only got two guys back,” head coach Joe Dooley said. “I think the rest of these guys are from winning programs, have been around winning. You can never take it for granted, it’s not as easy as people think.”
From last year’s 10-21 season, only two returning lettermen will grace the roster when the Pirates tip-off against the Virginia Military Institute on Tuesday.
