Newcomers pace ECU hoops win

From staff and electronic reports

Junior college transfer Darrell Jenkins recorded a double-double of 22 points and 12 assists and led a parade of five players — four of whom are newcomers — in double figures as East Carolina defeated Morgan State, 86-67, Saturday night in Greenville.

ECU freshman Gabe Blair scored 13 points and grabbed a team-high eight rebounds and junior Jeremy Ingram came off the bench to also score 13 points. Freshman John Fields blocked three shots to go along with 12 points, and junior college transfer Cory Farmer scored 11 points in a reserve role.

The Pirates, who shot 51.6 percent from the field — including a 42.9 percent mark from three-point range — pulled away in the second half after going in at the break with a 44-42 lead.

The game was the season opener for both teams. ECU returns to action on Tuesday, Nov. 14, at Richmond. Tip-off is set for 7 p.m. at the Robbins Center.
