Pirates Prepare for NCAA Southeast Regional
November 10, 2022 | Cross Country
GREENVILLE, N.C. – The East Carolina cross country program will travel to Louisville, Ky. on Friday to compete at the NCAA Southeast Regional at E.P. Tom Sawyer Park.
Â
The Pirates will be competing against several of the best teams in America with No. 12 North Carolina, No. 15 N.C. State and No. 30 Charlotte on the men's side and an absolutely loaded women's field led my No. 1 N.C. State. In addition to the Wolfpack, No. 12 Virginia, No. 15 North Carolina and No. 28 Furman will all be competing.
Â
ECU will look to build upon their performances a year ago in which the Pirate women took 20th and the men finished 19th. Lindsay Yentz led the way for the women's squad in that 2021 meet while Chase Osborne led the men.

Quotable
"I am excited to see how our guys respond to moving up for the 10k. the group is in a great place mentally and I am excited to see how we race against some nationally ranked teams!" said head coach Billy Caldwell. "The women are coming off a great week of training and they are excited to race at a high level. They are ready for a breakout race as a group and this is a great opportunity on a course that a lot of our girls are familiar with!"
Last Time Out
East Carolina competed at the AAC Championships on Friday with the men's team earning a seventh place finish of nine teams and the women taking ninth of 11.
