- 10/03/09 07:58 AM
Another WIN for the Pirates in West Virginia against fellow C-USA oppenent Marshall Deryck (The Tallest Man in Real Estate) & The Tailgate Crew GREENVILLE, NC - Like all Conference USA rivalries, ECU at Marshall today proved to be a dog fight. ECU first scored, followed by a touchdown to tie from Marshall. At halftime, ECU was ahead 14-7 and likely had major talks about 2nd half adjustments while in the lockerroom. I'm almost sure they had prayer too for defensive tackles coach Thomas "Rock" Roggeman whom was missing his first game of the season due to cancer, sidelined back in Greenville with … (1 comments)
