East Carolina University’s women’s soccer team wrapped up a successful weekend Sunday afternoon, improving to 3-0 on the season after defeating Towson 1-0 Sunday and Davidson 2-1 on Friday night.
Sunday’s game against the Tigers posed a huge challenge for the Pirates for a couple of reasons. It was their first matinee game of the season, and not only did they have to deal with playing at the hottest time during the day, but to do it after coming off less than 48 hours of rest. Head Coach Rob Donnenwirth knew coming into the game he would have to go deep into his bench to keep the energy level up.
