Pirates seek fast start

With another road test against a quality opponent awaiting the East Carolina women’s basketball team, ECU coach Heater Macy is particularly focused on how her team plays in the first quarter today against Auburn.

The Pirates (6-2) were part of the Lone Star Showcase last week, starting their three-day stay with a surprising 91-66 loss to Creighton before splitting the next two games. A rough start led to the Creighton loss, which is something Macy hopes her team avoids when it tips off against the Tigers (6-1) at 1 p.m.

The game will be broadcast on SEC Network Plus.
