Know Your Opponent: East Carolina

Posted Dec 6, 2014
East Carolina head coach Jeff Lebo will make his third trip to the building named for his college coach Sunday. Lebo, who is in his fifth season at ECU, last brought the Pirates to Chapel Hill in 2012. That game featured the Tar Heels leading by as much as 18, but a 61-point second half by ECU resulted in a 93-87 final. Prior to that, Lebo visited the Smith Center in 1999. (GoHeels.com)
