Wolfpack Baseball was cruising Wednesday night, carrying a 3-0 lead into the 9th inning vs ECU. Then the wheels started coming off. With the Pack clinging to a 3-2 lead in the top of the 9th, centerfielder Jake Fincher made this game saving catch with the bases full of Pirates…
ECU Pirates
Back, and to the Left Game Thread
Good morning from carter finley pic.twitter.com/0YcMubM9vm — NCSU_GROUNDS_CREW (@wolfpack_turf) November 23, 2013 I ran out of dumpster fire memes, so I went with historical appreciation instead. I suggest talking more about your own take on the assassination and/or your favorite conspiracy theory(ies), rather than the game. Not even sure I will watch, frankly. It’s mind-numbingly […]
Wolfpack Pitchers Prevail, Pack Drops ECU 2-0
In a game that featured dominant pitching from both clubs and very little offense to speak of, Wolfpack pitching managed to make fewer mistakes and stymie ECU for the second time in a week. Andrew Woeck (3-1) would work 1.2 scoreless innings to record the victory, giving up only a single hit while striking out […]
Pack9 tops ECU, 6-1

Terry Holland’s work at ECU coming to a close
I was going to pen a quick ‘quote of the day’ entry today related to East Carolina; so, it was only fitting that I be able to knock out two birds with one stone and not have to give East Carolina multiple entries on the front page. First, comes the announcement that Terry Holland will […]
State beats ECU 85-65
State moved to 2-0 with its opening-round 85-65 win over East Carolina in the Charleston Classic. Lorenzo Brown led all scorers with 16 points, but it was State’s bench that made the difference. DeShawn Painter and Ryan Harrow each had a double-double — Painter with 12 points and 10 rebounds and Harrow with 11 points […]
Skip Holtz jumps ECU for USF
Fascinating story developed in Greenville the last 24 hours…and the ‘main stream media’ took another punch to the face when ‘AOL’s Fanhouse’ – a blog platform that SFN was invited to join when it was first formed – is credited for breaking the news that Skip Holtz is leaving East Carolina for South Florida. Here’s […]
Saturday Stuff
I’m still licking wounds and dealing with depression from Thursday and I just want to turn my attention forward. So, we are NOT going to re-hash all of the post-mortems from Thursday night. The Wolfpack should have no problem heading into the Pitt game on September 26th with a little rust worked off the machine […]
Cheap Seats Football Retrospective: Part IV, 2007-Present
This is Part IV of a five-part series that is by no means intended to be authoritative. Rather, it’s nothing more than an incomplete, inconclusive, sometimes erroneous, while always biased retrospective of recent State football history. Part of this was based on nothing more than my attempt to answer the question so many of us […]
Cheap Seats Football Retrospective: Part I, The 1990s
Back in March of this year, any column I would’ve written could’ve only been titled “Why I should’ve gone to [insert SEC school here].†As I left Tobacco Road on Glenwood Avenue after watching yet another State basketball season mercifully end – like so many years before it – on the Thursday of the ACC […]
