East Carolina let most of
a 16-point second half lead slip away before stemming the damage with
some late free-throw heroics to escape an upset bid by Coker College
Saturday night in Greenville.
Four of junior guard Jontae
Sherrod's 11 points came on free throws in the final 1:15 to salvage the
win for the Pirates after an 8-point run by the Division II Cobras had
cut the margin to 65-62 with 1:36 remaining.
Junior forward Jamar
Abrams and junior guard Brock Young led the Pirates with 16 points
apiece and junior center Chad Wynn added 8 points and 10 rebounds.
Junior guard Vatrick
Thompson scored a game-high 18 points and senior forward Mason Ambler
had 15 points for Coker. Ambler grabbed 11 rebounds and reserve junior
guard Thomas Wright hauled down 10 to help the Cobras out-rebound East
Carolina 42-40.
The Pirates have a break
in their schedule this week before returning to action with a home game
against No 18 Clemson on Wednesday, Dec. 16 at 7 p.m.
