GREENVILLE, N.C. – Carrying a 4-0 record to start the season, the ECU women's basketball team will try to stay perfect on Saturday afternoon when the Pirates host Wake Forest at 2 p.m., inside Minges Coliseum.

ECU (4-0) has started the season with four home wins, the first time since the 2015-16 season that the Pirates have won four straight games to open a season. ECU has been led on the offensive end by junior Raven Johnson and sophomore Lashonda Monk. Johnson has scored in double figures in all four games this season and leads the team with 17.8 points per game. The Lilburn, Ga., native has a team-high nine three-pointers and has made a pair of appearances on the American Conference Weekly Honor Roll.

Monk is second on the team with an average of 13.3 ppg. Monk has handed out 18 assists, putting her fifth in the conference in assists per game (4.5) and she is also fifth in free throw percentage, making 26-of-29 (.897) from the charity stripe. Also finding themselves among the conference leaders are Salita Greene and Destiny Campbell. Greene is eighth in the league in rebounding, hauling in 7.3 boards per game while Campbell is second in blocked shots with 10.

Wake Forest comes into the weekend with a 3-2 record, having dropped consecutive games to VCU and Xavier. The Demon Deacons have been led by Elisa Penna, who was a Second-Team All-ACC pick a year ago and was named to the Preseason All-ACC team. She is averaging 16.3 ppg in three games so far. Ivana Raca and Ona Udoh are both scoring in double figures this season, with Raca pouring in 15.0 ppg to go along with 8.2 rebounds per game while Udoh has averages of 11.2 ppg and 8.4 rpg.

ECU leads the all-time series between the two schools 6-3. The last meeting came in 2004, when Wake Forest earned a commanding 70-47 victory. The Pirates are 3-2 in Greenville against the Demon Deacons.

Tipoff is scheduled for 2 p.m., inside Minges Coliseum. The game will be the first part of a doubleheader, with the ECU men's team scheduled to take on High Point at 5 p.m. Fans can find more information on tickets here.
