The Pirates (13-16, 5-11 American Athletic Conference) are 1-10 playing away from Greenville and picked up their first win on the road Tuesday against Tulane. But the Golden Hurricane (14-14, 8-8 American Athletic Conference) got the best of the Pirates, handing them yet another road loss.
Tulsa lost six of its last seven games before the win over the Pirates. Earlier in the season ECU grabbed the win over the Golden Hurricane, 69-66 on Jan. 25.
In Sunday’s game, the first half was an exciting one from the start. ECU started the game with a 5-0 run and held a one-point lead with 11:42 left to play in the first half .
