SLNANOddO By GEORGE THREEWITTS ECU News Bureau The pirate, a symbol of East Carolina University and its athletic teams, was adopted from the legend and lore of coastal North Carolina and was a natural choice for a nickname when intercol- legiate athletics began at the school in the 1930's. Pirates, fierce and colorful, were prominent in North Carolina’s colonial period. The state’s Outer Banks which jut far out into the Atlantic were ideal hideouts for these legendary gangsters of the high seas. Many had homes and families in the small villages along the coast. Edward Teach, best known as “Blackbeard” was a resident of Eastern North Carolina. He had a house at Ocracoke on the Outer Banks and an inland home at Bath on the Pamlico River. East Carolina University’s interest in pirates and sea lore began in 1934. That year, the Tecoan, the yearbook for what was then East Carolina Teachers College, Carried pirates as its theme. The pages were filled with paintings and sketches of patched eye figures, tall ships and buried treasure. The book referred to the tales of the infamous “Teachy the Pirate’ often told by natives in the historic town of Bath. The men’s varsity team, at the time, was known as “The Teachers,” a lackluster band of athletes who had won only two football games in three seasons of existence. But the student body's interest in pirates quickly resulted in changing the name of the team to capture the romantic appeal of the early sea adventures. The change brought so mush enthusiasm that in the following year, 1935, the Pirate football team had a much better season, winning three of its six games. Prior to the introduction of athletics for men, the ECTC Athletic Association, comprising women athletes in basketball, tennis, baseball and archery were content with the more classical nicknames. A 1930-31 Handbook for ECTC listed the two teams that made up the Athletic Association as the Olympians and the Athenians. Their colors were purple and gold (the same as today’s colors) and the mascot a wildcat. Other uses of the pirate theme began in the 1940's, witha literary magazine named “Pieces of Eight.” The name, however, was later changed to “Rebel.” The college yearbook became the “Buccaneer” in the 1950's and the pirate symbol, the face of a bearded, patched-eye character with a crossed bone emblem on his hat was added to the school seal in the mid 1960's. The Pirate as it is seen today — Powerful Pee Dee - was Officially adopted as the new logo in 1983. 4/ECU PROSPECTUS COACHES es _... e OPPONENTS '83 IN REVIEW GENERAL ASSESSMENT The door is open for East Carolina University football, and Coach Ed Emory hopes to usher the Pirates through it in 1984. Anticipation and excitement are the key words as ECU comes off a spectacular 8-3 1983 season, one that saw it defeat the likes of Missouri and North Carolina State and come within an eyelash of beating defending national champion Miami-Florida, Florida and Florida State. And all those games were on the road. “\We have more talent on this 1984 club than we had in 1983 or 1982,” states Emory, entering his fifth season at East Carolina. “But right now we are a very inexperienced team and it will be mid-season until we find out what type of team we will have.” It will be baptism under fire for Emory’s young Pirates as seven of the 11 games will be on the road. That is the second straight season ECU will play in Ficklen Stadium only four times. And among those seven road trips are Pittsburgh, North Carolina State, South Carolina, Tulsa and Florida State. The Pirates did lose 14 starters, but Emory has the nucleus back from a team that ended 1 983 ranked 20th in the final Associate Press poll, a first for an East Carolina football team. ECU also occupied the No. 17 spot in the final Sports Illustrated voting. Inexperience looms in two major areas. One, nota single person in the Pirate camp has taken a snap at quarterback. And two, the entire defensive front was lost to graduation. Twelve starters are back, but only 10 positions are covered as two players shared both tailback and flanker roles last year as starters. Five positions, or seven players, return as starters on offense while only three return to anchor the defense. No major changes are expected offensively or defensively, with the Pirates once again relying for the third straight year on the Option-| for yardage and the basic 5-2 defense. However, for the third consecutive year, Emory will have a new offensive coordinator with Don Murry joining the ECU staff from 1983 opponent Southwestern Louisiana, which is also on the Pirates’ 1984 schedule. OFFENSE Finding a quarterback is Emory’s biggest concern. Gone is two-year starter Kevin Ingam, whois playing in Canada, but Emory has lots of candidates to choose from. ; “If we are to be successful, one of our young quarterbacks has got to come forward and produce,” Emory said. ‘’! really believe we have the talent on hand, but they have to step up and get the job done.” The three most likely are sophomore Darrell Speed, redshirt freshman Ron Jones and junior college transfer Robbie Bartlett. Bartlett enjoyed considerable success in the Pirates’ spring Purple and Gold game, as did walk-on Brian Watts. Both Jones and Speed did not play because of injuries. Jones injured a knee that required orthroscopic surgery the last day of spring drills while Speed suffered a broken hand during the course of the spring. Tailback and wide receiver will be strong. The duo of Tony Baker and Jimmy Walden will again share the tailback duties while Henry Williams, the nation’s No. 1 kick returner in 1983, Ricky Nichols, and the brother tandem of Stefon and Amos Adams give the Pirates a deep threat. Although All-America Terry Long is gone at guard along with two other starters, ECU is strong in the offensive line with the return of sophomore tackle Tim Duams, who is being touted as a pre- season All-America candidate. The other lone starter back is right guard Norman Quick, but Emory has plenty of talent to choose from to fill the other spots. Tim M itchell will start at center after playing a great deal in 1983 due to the injury to starter John Floyd. In general, the Pirate offense for 1984 could be as good as last year, provided key areas fall in place. A quarterback must found and a young offensive line must develop. “We could be truly outstanding on offense if a quarterback comes through and we stay healthy,” states Emory. DEFENSE Pure and simple, East Carolina has a lot of holes to fill. How well young talent develops in some key positions will tell the story for 1984. “We have outstanding athletes, but we are so darn young,” Emory said. “We got cleaned out across the front line, except for some experience at noseguard. Up front on defense is the area you get hurt first. “Our defensive abilities this season hinges strictly on the development of the interior linemen and ends,” explained Emory. ‘| think we have a chance to be pretty good defensively if they develop. PIRATES/5 ALESIS Fe VERSE I RIL PINGS PGR UNSEEN RY, EE ATT SLNANOddO MIAH NI €8, Fe ‘on om = m *- - SYAAW Id + gene We do, however, have the best depth in years at linebacker and with defensive backs.” The only experience up front comes in the form of noseguard Chris Santa Cruz, who was a linebacker until midway through the 1983 season. At the tackles, things are up in the air. Joe Grinage emerged from the spring as the No. 1 right tackle with David Plum occupying the left side. But the defensive line is no doubt Emory’s biggest concern entering the 1984 season. John Williamson and Vinson Smith won the Starting end spots in spring and their developmentisa key to ECU's defensive success. After these, it's the same story of big, strong players who have not proven themselves on the varsity level yet. Linebacker is solid on both sides with P.J. Jordan on the left side and Tyrone Johnson on the right. Behind them, Emory has additional talent to choose from. The secondary is strong, even with the loss of starter Clint Harris at free safety. Two starters are back in cornerbacks Kevin Walker and Calvin Adams while Gay London and junior college transfer Keith Ford laid claim to the safety spots in the spring. In general, the Pirate defense for 1984 will depend upon the development of two tackles and two ends. If that happens in a positive way, look for another strong Pirate defense. KICKING GAME | With a two-year all-star placekicker, Starting punter and the nation’s very best return man, one must classify East Carolina's kicking game as one that will be very good in 1984. Henry Williams led the nation in kickoff returns a year ago with his 31.1 yard average. And to that, he tossed in his now famous end zone flip after each score. With kickoff returns of 99 and 93 yards and punt return scores of 56 and 55 yards, Williams is extremely dangerous. Production can be counted on from placekicker Jeff Heath, whois already halfway to the school scoring record in just two years. And punter Jeff Bolch just gets the job done. Bolch averaged 40.3 yards a punt last season, on 50 kicks. And add to that the return of deep snapper Stuart Ward. THE SCHEDULE It will be another ambitious year for East Carolina. After shocking many around the country with superb performances against the name teams last year and coming within 13 points of an unbeaten season, the Pirates have yet another opportunity to do the same in 1984. Seven of the 11 games are on the road, Starting with the Sept. 1 opener with Florida State ina rematch of last year’s 47-46 thriller. Add to that South Carolina, North Carolina State, Pittsburgh, Tulsa and Southern Mississippi.

At the close of spring drills as many as three could be taking the opening snap Sept. 1 against Florida State. Junior college transfer Robbie Bartlett played well in the spring game, completing nine of 14 passes, while his competition sat and watched. Both sophomore Darrell Speed (broken hand) and redshirt freshman Ron Jones (knee) were injured during the course of spring workouts. Jones underwent orthroscopic surgery after injuring his knee on the final day of the spring. Jones could be the odds on favorite if his knee recovers by the start of fall drills. Walk on Brian Watts was also impressive during the Purple and Gold game. No doubt, this is Ed Emory’s biggest offensive concern for 1984 with the graduation of two-year starter Kevin Ingram. Fullback (Returning 2-Lost 1) Even with the graduation of leading rusher Earnest Byner, the Pirates will be strong here with senior Reggie Branch, who played a backup role to Byner last season. Branch rushed for 166 yards on just 40 carries for a healthy 4.2 yards per carry average. And Emory feels confident with the people he has behind Branch — sophomore Pat Bowens and redshirt freshman George Franklin. Tailback (Returning 2-Lost 0) Emory smiles when this position comes up in conversation. Outside of the wide receivers, this may be the Pirates strongest offensive position. Back are junior Tony Baker and senior Jimmy Walden, who alternated at the spot in 1983 with great success. Baker ended the season as ECU's second leading rusher (534 yards) while Walden wasn't far behind with his 453 yards. The two give ECU an impressive tailback attack. : Flanker (Returning 2-Lost 0) Back are 1983 starters Ricky Nichols and Henry Williams, which means bad news for Opposing secondaries. Both possess 4.3 speed, with Nichols grabbing 15 passes for 222 yards and a gaudy 14.8 yards per catch average. Williams did not figure much in the Pirates’ Passing attack a year ago (four catches for 62 yards, 15.5 average) but willin 1984. Williams Spent 1983 leading the nation in kick returns. Depth is also there with sophomore Chris McLawhorn and redshirt freshman Tony Smith. Split End (Returning 2-Lost O) Stefon Adams is back — enough said. The talented senior was the Pirates’ leading receiver a year ago, grabbing 29 passes for 277 yards (13.9 average). Adams is a solid starter, which he proved in 1983. Behind him is brother Amos Adams and junior Brent Holbrook, giving ECU some depth it did not have last season. Tackle (Returning 2-Lost 1) The offensive line will take some work in 1984 with the loss of three starters. Gone at this spot is All America choice John Robertson, but back is sophomore Tim Dumas, who impressed many in 1983 with a phenominal freshman season. Dumas, however, is the only real experience at this spot. Dumas will line up at left tackle while senior Brad Henson will probably line up on the right side. The talent is behind them, just untested. Emory is hoping for the fast development of Greg Sokolohorsky, Theo Livingston, Rick Hilburn and Greg Quick. Guard (Returning 2-Lost 1) ECU suffered probably its biggest loss here with the graduation of first-team All-America Terry Long, who was a fourth-round pick of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Senior Norman Quick, who started with Long a year ago, is back, and will be backed up by redshirt freshman Petey Davis and sophomore Paul Hoggard. In Long's spot is Mack Powers, a senior who saw action at tackle during the 1983 season. Behind Powers is slim, with Emory looking to Rich Autry. PIRATES/9 WOOg GuOo23Y SAHOVOD MGIAF4 NI €8. SIN3INOddO~ Center (Returning 2-Lost 1) Senior Tim Mitchell is back after starting the majority of the 1983 season after John Floyd was sidelined. This spot will be solid for the Pirates as Mitchell will have help from Stuart Ward, who also handles ECU's deep snapping chores, and sophomore Greg Thomas. Tight End (Returning 1-Lost 2) Emory is hoping this spot can be as strong as a year ago. Gone is starter Norwood Vann (Los Angeles Rams), but Emory is looking to senior Damon Pope to step in and get the job done. Pope did catch seven passes for 83 yards (11.9 average) in 1983. Behind him will bea dogfight between sophomore Bryant Porter, junior Jeff Patton and possibly junior Barry Wright, who played basketball for the Pirates during the 1983-84 season. Defense Lettermen: Returning 17, Lost11 | Starters: Returning 3, Lost 7 End (Returning 4-Lost 3) It's pick and choose for Emory and his staff. The Pirates’ defensive front was crippled by graduation, losing all five starters, including both devensive ends. And replacing Jeff Pegues will not be easy. Emory is looking to either redshirt freshman Ron Gillard or junior Willie Mack on the right side while the left side could see any one of three people — redshirt freshman Vinson Smith, senior Dave Thomas or redshirt freshman Essray Taliaferro. Quick develop- ment at defensive end will be a key for the Pirates in 1984. Tackle (Returning 2-Lost 3) The same holds true here. Tackle was probably the Pirates’ strongest defensive position a year ago, but will be a question mark in 1984. The talent is there, but the experience is lacking. Emory will turn to sophomore David Plum on the left side and Joe Grinage on the right. Behind them Emory is hoping for the quick advancement of redshirt freshmen Leon Hall and Glenn Geist. Noseguard (Returning 1-Lost 1) This spot could be the strongest in Emory’s five years at ECU. Senior Chris Santa Cruz, moved from linebacker last year, has the potential to be a good one while redshirt freshman Medrick Rainbow raised some eyebrows during the spring. Emory is hoping this position can set the tone for his defensive front. Linebacker (Returning 5-Lost 1) Can be summed up in one word — strong. Back is 1983 starter P.J. Jordan, who was inon 90 tackles last year, and senior Tyrone Johnson, who registered 56 tackles in 1983. It will be Jordan's third year asa starter while Johnson will try to step in and fill the vacancy left by Mike Grant, who is playing with the USFL’s Memphis Showboats. Cornerback (Returning 3-Lost 1) Both 1983 starters are back — junior Kevin Walker on the left side and senior Calvin Adams on the right side. Walker led the Pirates with five interceptions last year, and the two will combine to give ECU some necessary experience in the secondary. Emory likes his depth here, with senior Rally Caparas behind Walker and junior Tim Pittman and redshirt freshman Ellis Dillahunt behind Adams. Safety (Returning 2-Lost 2) Second-team All-America Clint Harris, who many considered the best athlete in 1983, is gone, but Emory has lots of talent to choose from. Stepping to the front during the spring were sophomore Gary London at strong safety and junior college transfer Keith Ford at free safety. Lending help will be junior Vernard Wynn, senior Randy Bost and James Martin. Specialists Lettermen: Returning 3, Lost 1 Starters: Returning: 3, Lost O Placekicker (Returning 1, Lost 0) A strong position with record-setting junior Jeff Heath back. Although Heath experienced a sub-par 1983 season, converting on olny nine of 21 field attempts, he made a name for himself in 1982, setting school records for most field goals (16) and longest field goal (58 yards). He’s a threat when he’s on. 10/ECU naRreRteeterRterRterRteHtHRtHteawawTttiwa : ) : = = = = a is = Ss = im p) ») fu) I Pa! ai i bw as Li j Punter (Returning 1-Lost 0) Jeff Bolch returns, averaging 40.3 yards a kick during 1983.

Snapper (Returning 1-Lost 0) Junior Stuart Ward returns after filling in nicely in 1983 after 1982 starter Whitley Wilkerson was lost to graduation. Should be a strong spot for the Pirates.

ED EMORY (East Carolina, 1960) Best Time To Call: 10:30 AM to 12 PM, M-F In only four seasons, Ed Emory has molded the East Carolina program into a national contender in college football. After two major rebuilding years, Emory’s 1982 and 1983 Pirate squads posted 7-4 and 8-3 records, respectively, against some of the toughest com- petition in college football. The four losses in 1982 were to Missouri, North Carolina State, Florida State and West Virginia while 1983 saw the Pirates lose to only Florida State, Florida and national champion Miami (Fla.). Emory returned to his alma mater in 1980, bringing with him a reputation as one of the finest recruiters in this region. While serving as an assistant coach at Clemson, Duke and Georgia Tech, Emory was able to recruit some of the finest players in the South. ECU's last five recruiting classes have been among the strongest, if not the strongest, in Pirate history. The 1983 season also saw Emory finish second to Miami-Florida’s Howard Schnellenberger for All- Southern Independent Coach of the Year honors. A four-year starter for the Pirates from 1956-59, Emory was three times all-conference and all- district NAIA for Coach Jack Boone. His first three years were spent playing guard while he enjoyed a standout senior season at tackle. He was twice named best blocker and most outstanding lineman, while serving as a senior co-captain and gaining third-team All-America honors. Emory has enjoyed success on both the high school and college levels. Upon graduation from ECU, he coached for Wadesboro and Bowman High's in Wadesboro; Grainger High in Kinston; and Brevard High, compiling an impressive 80-1 2-4 overall record. He also coached wrestling (92-1 0- 20), track (72-10) and tennis (38-6). High schooi honors have been many, including six’coach-of-the-year awards. In 1972, Emory served as head coach for the North Carolina Shrine Bowl team, and in 1973 was head coach in the North-South Boy’s Home ail-star game. In 1967 and 1968, Emory coached running backs at Wake Forest. After five highly successful Seasons as head coach at Brevard High School, he shifted in 1973 to become the junior varsity coordinator at Clemson. He was named backfield coach for the Tigers in 1974 and 1975 and became their line coach in 1976. The Lancaster, SC, native was the linebacker coach at Duke in the spring of 1977. In 1 978, he returned to coaching at Georgia Tech as defensive line coordinator and out-of-state recruiting director under Coach Pepper Rodgers until assuming his present position at East Carolina. 1980" 4 1981 1982 (1983 PIRATES/13 MOOG GHOIAY SGYVMV 8 SHONOH “SUaAVId a } SLNINOddO > MIAH NI E8.

Lafayette, Louisiana 318-233-8120 The James Skinner Ficklen Memorial Stadium was dedicated on September 21, 1963, with East Carolina defeating Wake Forest 20-10. The dedication game was the culmination of a dream come true for the then East Carolina College and all of eastern North Carolina. The original plan was announced on Oct. 7, 1961, by Dr. Leo Jenkins, Chancellor of the College, at a meeting of the Society of Buccaneers. Within a year, $283,387 had been raised, although the goal had been only $200,000. With the funds in hand, Ficklen Stadium was built. The original stadiumconsisted of the permanant stands on the south side, a small press box and the old lighting system that was removed after the 1974 season. Total cost was $300,000. The north side permanent seating was constructed in 1968, increasing the stadium seating capacity to 20,000. The stadium was named for the late James Skinner Ficklen, a Greenville resident, who distinguished himself as one of America's leading tobacconists. At the time of his death in 1955, Ficklen was President and Chairman of the Board of the E.B. Ficklen Tobacco Company of Greenville. He was a close friend of the College and established a financial aid foundation, the Ficklen Foundation, to aid students of the College. The first major change in Ficklen Stadium was the lighting system, a change that occurred just before the 1975 season opened. The old inner-stadium lights on six poles were removed and replaced with six towers outside the stadium. The system is a combination of metallic and incandescent lights. There are 288 fixtures of 1 500 watts each on the six 162-foot high towers. Cost of the system was $450,000. Engineers say ECU has the best lighted stadium in the southeast. A radical change greeted fans as the 1978 season opened. An expansion on all four corners boosted Ficklen’s seating capacity from 20,000 to 35,000, the third largest stadium in North Carolina. This expansion was made possible with 2” million dollars through a drive in the spring of 1977. In addition to more seats, an ultra-modern press box with three levels and an elevator for access was built. The much needed press box is one of the finest in the country with space for 92 writers and an entire floor for electronic media. Also, a modern scoreboard with a lightbank message center was placed on the east end of Ficklen. During the summer of 1983, a complete renovation took place on the playing surface. A new drainage system, a new base of gravel and sand, new treated topsoil and a new grass was installed. The new grass, Tifton 41 9 Hybrid-Bermuda was sprigged at the rate of 600 bushels per acre. The playing field is approximately two acres. The 1983 season saw ECU seta set a school record for average game attendance in Ficklen Stadium (24,492) as the Pirates extended their home unbeaten string to eight games.

East Carolina 22 North Carolina State 16 Carter-Finley Stadium September 10, 1983 Raleigh, NC Attendance: 57,700 Before the largest crowd to witness a football game in North Carolina history, East Carolina notched what Coach Ed Emory labeled its “greatest victory ever” over the Wolfpack. Trailing early, the Pirates used successive touchdown drives to overcome North Carolina State before 57,700 fans. The victory was only the fourth in the 1 4-game series with State which began in 1970. The win also snapped ECU's five-game losing streak at the hands of the Wolfpack, who last lost to an ECU team in 1977. The Wolfpack took a 13-7 first-half lead, and with Mike Cofer’s 24-yard field goal with 10:37 to play in the third quarter, State found itself with a 16-7 advantage. But two series later the Pirates drove 59 yards in nine plays with tailback Tony Baker covering the final six yards on a power sweep for the score. With the score 16-14 and 14:29 remaining State began a drive that later stalled, giving ECU the ball on its own 1 7. The Pirates then covered 83 yards in 11 plays. Fullback Earnest Byner ended the go-ahead scoring drive with his five-yard TD run. Byner ended the night with 97 carries while quarterback Kevin Ingram chipped in 90 on 16 carries. Ingram added the two-point conversion with his three-yard run, making the final count 22- 16. The Pirates did have to hold off two late State drives, the last ending at the ECU 10 yard line as time ran out. Cornerback Chuck Bishop dropped State running back Vince Evans for a seven-yard loss as time expired. State's Joe Mcintosh paced the Wolfpack with his 160 yards rushing.

After spotting Murray State a quick 3-0 lead, the Pirates retaliated with 23 points of their own over the next 9:40 for a very comfortable 26-3 halftime lead. Ingram directly contributed to 18 of those 26 first-half points, scoring the Pirates’ first touchdown onan eight-yard run, then passing 2 7 yards to tight end Norwood Vann and six yards to tight end Damon Pope. The Pirates lead ballooned to 40-6 after three quarters, and the rout was on. Henry Williams returned a Murray State kickoff 93 yards for a touchdown after the Racers had closed the lead to 26-6, then Ingram added his second touchdown from six yards out with 6:21 still to play in the third quarter. East Carolina’s defense played one of its best games of the year, limiting the Racers to just 71 yards rushing, with most of Murray State’s 310 yards of total offense coming ina 19-point fourth quarter. Even with the starters sitting on the bench for the final quarter, the Pirates did manage one last touchdown drive, engineered by reserve quarterback John Williams. Williams directed the ECU offense 80 yards, with the final 20 coming on his pass to Amos Adams for the final 25-point Margin.

Attendance: 48,268 East Carolina called on its defense more than once against the Big Eight Missouri Tigers, and each time the defense answered. And in the end, the defense rested. Limiting Missouri to a pair of first-half field goals and 223 yards of total offense, the Pirates shocked the 48,000-plus fans in the Tigers’ Faurot Field, pinning a 13-6 loss on the hometown fans. The two teams battled for three quarters, and in the end Henry Williams and Kevin Ingram provided East Carolina with the needed push to get over the top. With the score knotted at 6-6 and nine minutes to play, Williams broke loose ona punt return for 23 yards, putting ECU at the Missouri 40. Three rushing plays produced a first down, then Ingram dropped back and fired a strike to flanker Ricky Nichols in the left corner of the end zone for the game’s only touchdown. It also happened to provide the winning points. East Carolina's defense then rose to the occasion over the last 8:56 to stymie Missouri time after time. Going into the game the Pirates had given up 87 points in just three prior outings, but the Tigers found the going tough. Missouri, at the time the nation’s 15th-best rushing team, could muster just 86 yards on the ground. Ingram finished the day completing 10-of-17 passes for 135 yards and that all important touchdown pass as ECU rolled up 331 yards of total offense. The victory was ECU's third straight after a heartbreaking 47-46 season-opening loss at Florida State. “We just got better and better on defense,’ said Head Coach Ed Emory. ‘We like to line up and play agressive. That's East Carolina football.” GAME STATISTICS ECU MO First Downs tS ee Rushes-Yards 54-196 43-135 Passing Yards 135 137 Passes (A-C-l) 17-10-0 19-9-1 Return Yards 63 8 Punts-Avg. 8-38.5 9-51.0 Penalties-Yards 9-53 5-32 Fumbles-Lost 3-1 3-1 SCORE BY QUARTERS EAST CAROLINA fs a 0 7 —13 MISSOURI 6 0 0 0 — 6 MO — FG Burditt, 28 MO — FG Burditt, 48 ECU — FG Heath, 26 ECU — FG Heath, 39 ECU — Nichols 27 pass from Ingram (Heath kick) Rushing: ECU — Byner 16-95; Walden 13-63; MO — Drain 17-66; Barbosa 10-34.

Baker totalled 86 of his yards in the second half, when the Pirates needed them most. Yet it still took a 63-yard East Carolina drive in the final quarter for the Pirates to come away with the victory and stretch their winning streak to four games. “It wasn't pretty, but we'll take it,” said Head Coach Ed Emory as the Pirates improved their record to 4-1. “Wedidn't take this game lightly, but we just didn't play with as much intensity as we have in our last several games.” ECU had built a 14-3 halftime lead, but three second-half fumbles directly resulted in two Southwestern Louisiana scores, and the Pirates found themselves trailing 18-10 with 13:06 to play. But Baker came to the rescue with his one-yard scoring plunge, which capped that final 63 yard march. The Ragin’ Cajuns outgained ECU 468 yards to 393 as USL held the upper hand in almost every Statistical category. The Cajuns, in fact, ran 81 plays tothe Pirates’ 68 and punted just twice. Time of possession was also in favor of USL (33:43 to 26:1 7). After scoring the go-ahead, and what proved to be the winning touchdown with 7:30 still to play, the Pirates had to hold off USL one more time, stopping the Cajuns at the USL 44.

The game, originally scheduled for Veterans Stadium, was moved to Franklin Field because of the schedule conflict with the World Series between the Baltimore Orioles and Philadelphia Phillies, prompting a sparse turnout of 5,461. Tony Baker carried the ball 22 times for 117 yards to lead all Pirate rushers while running mate Earnest Byner chipped in with 60 yards on 18 carries. Jeff Heath got things started with his 49-yard field goal in the first quarter and the rest seemed easy. Ingram upped that to 10-0 with his one yard scoring run at 10:06 of the second quarter, then safety Clint Harris gave the Pirates a comfortable 17-0 halftime lead with his 74-yard interception return for a touchdown. Henry Williams accounted for ECU’s only touchdown of the second half as he raced 55 yards with a punt at 10:57 of the third quarter, giving the Pirates a nice 24-3 cushion. “This is a great win,” said Head Coach Ed Emory. “Anytime you win five in a row you have got to be happy. ” The victory was indeed the Pirates fifth straight after a season-opening 47-46 loss to Florida State in Tallahassee, Fla. Ingram made sure No. 5 was a certainty as 99 of 173 yards passing came in the first half. The senior completed his last seven passes — all to different receivers — before the close of the first half after his first pass of the day fell incomplete.

Attendance: 73,943 It was game No. 2 in the three-game series between East Carolina and the State of Florida, and for the second time the Pirates came out on the short side. But for the second time, not by much. The No. 6 Florida Gators needed a six-yard touchdown run by Neal Anderson with 6:23 to play and a defensive stand late in the game to preserve the 24-1 7 Homecoming victory before a Florida Field record crowd of 73,943. As was the case against Florida State in the season opener, the Pirates jumped out toa quick lead by virtue of an 80-yard, 10-play drive. The 13-yard run by Earnest Byner gave ECU a 7-0 lead, but more importantly was the first first-quarter TD scored on Florida all season. The Pirates took a 10-7 lead into the dressing room at intermission, but the Gators exploded for 10 third-quarter points while the Florida defense shut down the Pirate offense. Jimmy Walden tied things at 1 7-1 7 with his 15-yard touchdown run early in the fourth quarter, but Anderson answered with his own scoring jaunt with time running out. The Pirates moved the ball to the Florida 34 yard line where they faced a fourth-and-four situation with 2:32 to play. That drive stalled, but ECU got one last chance getting the ball back on its own 10. The Pirates drove to the Florida 37, but with three receivers in the game quarterback Kevin Ingram bobbled the Snap as the horn sounded. The loss snapped the Pirates’ win streak at five, with both losses on their 5-2 record coming to Florida schools.

The Pirates, who had their five-game winning streak snapped the week before in Gainesville, Fla., ran off 21 unanswered points and it looked as if the home fans were finally going to get the performance they had been hoping for. But East Tennessee State refused to roll over and play dead, shutting down the explosive Pirate offense for the final 40 minutes. Jimmy Walden opened the scoring with his 21-yard touchdown run with 13:13 to play in the first quarter, giving the Pirates a quick 7-O. That quickly ballooned to 14-0 when quarterback Kevin Ingram found flanker Ricky Nichols for 34 yards and the score just seven minutes later. It was 21-0 before the Buccaneers knew what hit them as Reggie Branch bulled in from two yards out, putting the Division I-AA Bucs in a 21-0 hole. But ECU's offensive success quickly ended. “| take full credit for the loss of momentum,’ said Head Coach Ed Emory. ‘| wanted to play some young guys and subbed early. Things came too easy in the first quarter. Then, in the second quarter we got down there three times and didn't score. ‘I'm so disappointed that we did not play good and play inspired in front of the large crowd, ’ Emory said. ‘We just never seem to play as well at home as we do on the road.” East Tennessee State was never in any real position to win the game, but it did make things respectable with its third-quarter field goal and fourth-quarter touchdown. The victory upped ECU's record to 6-2, and was its sixth win in its last seven games.

ECU had taken the ball to the Miami three yard line, the drive stalled and Jeff Heath came onto attempta 21-yard field goal that would give the Pirates some breathing room. But as Heath approached the ball, acannon was fired behind the goal posts Heath was kicking towards and his effort sailed wide right. The Hurricanes, eventual national champions, seized the opportunity on the next series when they drove 80 yards, with quarterback Bernie Kosar going the final yard, for a 12-7 lead. East Carolina had one last chance when a Hail Mary pass from quarterback Kevin Ingram found its way into Stefon Adams’ hands. But a streaking Norwood Vann collided with his teammate Adams at the Miami goal line, knocking the ball loose and preserving the Hurricane victory. The loss was the third for the Pirates in the state of Florida in 1983, with only 13 points Separating them from three victories. “We would have had the game right there,’ said Head Coach Ed Emory, referring to the deflected pass. ‘We had our chances four times to get points, but did not do so. You can't do that against a great team like Miami.” The Pirates outgained the Hurricanes (332 to 290) in total yards while also running 11 more offensive plays (72 to 61), but missed field goals and a lost fumble proved to be the difference in the end.

OVERALL RECORD: 6-3 PIRATES/95 SGYVMV BSHONOH ~ ALISYAAINN AHL 4AVLS DILJTHLV MOOG GYOOsAY East Carolina 40 KY William & Mary 6 Ficklen Stadium November 12, 1983 Greenville, NC Attendance: 24,731 Earnest Byner and Tony Baker took care of business very nicely in East Carolina’s fourth and final home game of the 1983 season. The two combined for 264 yards and four touchdowns as the Pirates rebounded from their heartbreaking loss to Miami a week earlier to nail William & Mary with a 40-6 defeat. Baker finished the game with 135 yards on 20 carries and scored on runs of 18 and one yards while Byner chipped in with 129 yards on 20 carries along with a one-yard TD lunge and a six-yard scoring pass from Kevin Ingram. Jimmy Walden also scored a pair of touchdowns on runs of 15 and four yards as the Pirates rolled up 566 yards of offense while limiting the Indians to 294. William & Mary could rush for only 81 yards as 213 of the Indians’ total yards'‘came through the air. “This is the closest we've been to a complete game all year,” said Head Coach Ed Emory. “Give credit to the defensive staff. | expect this is the best Williams & Mary has been shut down all year. There was a lot of skepticism about our defense early in the year, but they have hung in there and gotten better.” The six points was William & Mary's lowest point production of the 1983 season, and it could have very well been lower than that. The Indians were stymied all day by a very agressive Pirate defense and did not put their lone score on the board until the 8:30 mark of the final quarter. Ingram also enjoyed an exceptional game, rushing for 74 yards while also passing for 80 more and one touchdown.

Attendance: 21,000 This game may have classified as East Carolina's bowl game — The Mud Bowl. The skies in Hattiesburg, Miss., opened up and drenched the natural turf of Roberts Stadium, turning the game between the Pirates and Southern Mississippi into a splashing affair. But in the end, Southern Mississippi came up a little water-logged. ECU came away with a 10-6 victory to end its most successful season since 1978 when the then Pat Dye-coached Pirates went 9-3, including an Independence Bowl victory over Louisiana Tech. Both teams were fighting against tornado-watch winds, but Head Coach Ed Emory said he wouldn’‘t have wanted to win his fourth road game in any other fashion. “Vou couldn't have had a better storybook finish for me,’” Emory said. “To win away from home on our seventh road trip, playing in this kind of weather and coming from behind like we did made the win so much better. ‘It's better to win that way to me than to win ona dry field 48-0,” Emory said. ‘It really made the kids feel that they could overcome all adversity. © The Pirates fell behind early 6-O on two Southern Mississippi field goals. But both those came in the first quarter, and ECU kept the explosive Golden Eagles off the scoreboard the remainder of the night. Following a bad Southern Mississippi punt, the Pirates started on the USM 22 yard line, then quickly punched the ball in when quarterback Kevin Ingram connected with tight end Norwood Vann from 14 yards out, midway through the third quarter. Placekicker Jeff Heath then added a 37-yard field goal with 1:07 left in the third quarter to close out the night's scoring. The rest was all defense. And weather.

This gives the Pirates a winning percentage of .680. During this period the Pirates have moved from a dominant Southern Conference team to a major Southern Independent. ... that East Carolina had eight players taken in the May NFL draft? With that total the Pirates tied Penn State for third in the nation for most players chosen. The University of Texas was first with 18 taken in 12 rounds, followed by Illinois with nine. ... that East Carolina will face its second straight season of seven road games? A year ago the Pirates faced the same task as they do in 1 984, with only four of the 1 1 games scheduled for Ficklen Stadium. The Pirates, however, will be home five times in 1985, including games with 1983 national champion Miami-Florida, Tulsa and South Carolina.

During its tenure in the league the Pirates enjoyed good SUCCESS. The Southern Conference presents yearly the Commissioner's Cup, an award sym- bolic of the top overall athletic program in the league. Only two schools had ever won the cup. East Carolina University and the College of William and Mary. Appropriately, the Pirates captured the Commissioner's Cup forthe 1976-77 school year, East Carolina’s final year in the Southern Conference. East Carolina won the cup outright three times, in 1973-74, 1974-75 and 1976-77, and tied for the cup in 1969-70. The Cup is presented each year to the school that compiles the most points as awarded by finish of each team in each sport. 1976-77 1973-74 1970-71 EAST CAROLINA 58% EAST CAROLINA 710% William & Mary 69 William & Mary 572 William & Mary 66 EAST CAROLINA 56% Appalachian 56 Appalachian 66 Citadel 48” Furman 52% Richmond 55% Furman 47% VMI 45 Furman 53 Davidson 47 Citadel 35% Citadel 42 VMI 29 Davidson 24 Davidson 37% Richmond 25% 1975-76 VMI 35% 1969-70 William & Mary 68 1972-73 EAST CAROLINA 56 EAST CAROLINA 65 William & Mary 69% William & Mary 56 Appalachian 62 EAST CAROLINA 68% Citadel 4672 Furman 58% Appalachian 56 Furman 43% Richmond 96.

Stasavich was one of the prominent leaders in the Southern Conference from the time the Pirates joined the league in 1964 until his death in 1975. 130/ECU | ie {at ihe (1964-1976) YEAR WON LOST TIED FINISH YEAR WON LOST TIED FINISH 1964 4 1 O ~=Not eligible 1371 3 y 4 O ‘—~ Fourth 1965 3 1 O Third 1972 6 O O First 1966 4 1 1 Tie-First 1973 7 O O First 1967 4 1 O Second 1974 Be: O Tie-Third 1968 2 2 0 Tie-Third 1975 4 2 O Second 1969 1 3 @) Fifth 1976 4 1 0) First 1970 2 2 6) Fourth (1964-1976) TEAM YEARS GAMES WON LOST TIED PCT.

PIRATES/141 ALISYAAINN AHL 4AVLS OILITHLV mel a m C. < < mi Pe) ” 4AVLS DILATHLV Seventy-seven years of growth and advance- ment mark the history of East Carolina Uni- versity. Since the institution began as a teachers school in 1907, East Carolina has grown along with the town of Greenville and the region. Following its motto, SERVIRE: To Serve, East Carolina has become one of the South's Most rapidly developing institutions of higher learning. Its development has occurred in giant Steps in the heart of a region described 25 years ago as a ‘sleeping giant,’ just then being stirred to awaken. Then during the last two decades especially, East Carolina experi- enced spectacular growth, mushrooming from a relatively small liberal arts college into a major university, the third largest in the state, with more 13,000 students enrolled today. East Carolina was given university status by an act of the General Assembly of North Carolina in 1967 and with it a mandate to raise and expand its programs and services. Four years later it became a constituent campus of the consolidated University of North Carolina system. Today, East Carolina has 18 academic departments in its College of Arts and Sciences nine professional schools including North Carolina's newest school of medicine, the General College, the Graduate School and the Division of Continuing Education. East Carolina's professional schools are: Allied Health and Social Professions, Art, Business, Education, Home Economics, Med- icine, Music, Nursing and Technology. Undergraduate degrees are offered in 105 bachelor’s degree programs along with 107 minor program concentrations. The Graduate School offers 73 master’s degree program areas, six sixth year programs and five programs granting doctoral degrees. The doctoral programs, in basic medical sciences, were approved by the Board of Governors in the fall of 1979. This authori- zation represents a special milestone in the Progress of the University, placing it among the six private and public institutions in North Carolina to offer Ph.D. level graduate students. The School of Medicine offers four-year professional MD degrees. | Although its growth in size and new programs has been phenomenal, East Carolina University places emphasis upon academic excellence, upon quality rather than quantity. East Carolinas physical growth is, in itself, a continuing wonder. The original campus site — on which the first six buildings were constructed in 1980 — has expanded to a 411-acre campus with 64 buildings. The campus physical plant is valued at nearly $100 million and is con- stantly being improved and beautified. A large, modern medical school campus has been constructed on a site several miles west of the main campus in Greenville. The athletic complex includes a newly- enlarged football stadium, expanded from 20,000 to more than 35,000 seats in 1978. Its press box and lighting are regarded as the finest facilities in the South. Located in the mild, sunny climate of the Carolinas’ coastal plain, East Carolina attracts the bulk of its student body from the 50 or so counties in the eastern tier of North Carolina and southeast Virginia, and from along the eastern seaboard as far north as New York and New England. A great many of the more than 36,000 living alumni who have come to East Carolina from other states have chosen to stay in eastern North Carolina to live and work, and have become successful, prosperous and PIRATES/143 4AVLS OILFTHLV happy citizens of this growing region. There are many other alumni who were attracted to the school and its educational opportunities while serving in the armed forces at such nearby bases as the Camp Lejeune and Cherry Point Marine bases, Seymour-John- son Air Force Base, or at Fort Bragg, NC. East Carolina's faculty of 750 highly- trained professors and academicians en- gages in research activity supported by some $5 million in annual funding. Remarkable growth of faculty research activity has been noted in recent years. The libraries contain 144/ECU collections of more than 500,000 bound volumes, 8,516 serial subscriptions, 600,000 units of microfilm, 5,201 phono- disc/tape recordings, 320 manuscripts collections comprised of 500,000 items and the latest in library-loan systems. The Computer Center also has the latest in modern computer capability to serve the campus. In all, East Carolina is fulfilling its potential aS a university which is increasingly pro- mininent as a center for educational opportunity and service. BERBREBEEEE SB EB Greenville, the home of East Carolina University, offers the best of both worlds, with its up-to-date technology and down-to- earth people. The county seat of Pitt County, Greenville, founded in 1774, has a present population of 38,000.The surrounding county population is 90,146. The Greenville area has been traditionally agricultural, holding the distinction as the world’s leading producer of bright, flue-cured tobacco, and also a leader in production of peanuts, soybeans, cucumbers and other fruits and vegetables. While the region remains strong in agri- Culture, Greenville has changed with the times, adding the proper mix of industry and recreational facilities to give the community a variety of options. Local and regional support for expanded Medical services in eastern North Carolina resulted in the development of a major medi- cal community in Greenville, and the region now depends on the city as a primary source for advanced health care. Pitt County Memorial Hospital is Greenville's community hospital and the primary teaching facility for the East Carolina University School of Medicine, and with its excellent facilities and capabilities it has become the regional referral center for 29 counties in eastern North Carolina. Greenville is a rich environment for the arts with a blend of art organization, a private Art Center, Pitt County Arts Council and the East Carolina University Schools of Art and Music. Popular arts festivals highlight the year, while the excellent reputation of the ECU School of Music attracts a high percen- tage of out-of-state students to the respected program. A wide array of live theater-plays, musical comedies, opera and operettas-and films come tp Greenville through ECU. The Summer Theatre, featuring Broadway shows, and the Dinner Theatre series are particularly popular. Greenville citizens enjoy outdoor recrea- tion all year long thanks to a moderate climate. There are four distinct seasons, none too harsh to enjoy. Winters are short and usually mild, with the average January temperature hovering around 45 degrees. The long sum- mers are not too hot due to a stiff southern breeze and average July temperatures of 79 degrees. With an average rainfall of 49 inches, well distributed throughout the year, and a growing season of 215 days, the city wears a lush, green mantle most of the year. The recreational pursuits include visiting one of Greenville’s 16 parks; planned activi- ties offered year-round by any of the 11 recreation areas; facilities such as four rec- reation centers; a downtown community building; 24 tennis courts (10 lighted); 14 playgrounds; three championship golf courses; a stadium and fields for baseball, men’s and women’s softball, little league and track. In addition, a recreational bikeway with com- muter links forms a loop around the city. There is abundant game in the area for the hunting and fishing enthusiasts-especially deer, quail and duck-and the Pitt County Wildlife Club has excellent hunting ranges. Fishermen find everything here from fresh- water streams to the nearby Pamlico Sound and Atlantic Ocean. Greenville is less than two hours drive from the famed Outer Banks of North Carolina and the beaches, seafood and the recreation- rich Pamlico and Albemarle sounds and other Atlantic coastal estuaries. The proper blend of its people, it's tech- nology, and its recreation, makes Greenville, North Carolina a great place to be. East Carolina University is committed to equality of educational opportunity and does not discriminate against applicants, students, or employees based on race, color, national origin, religion, sex, age or handicap. Moreover, East Carolina University is open to people of all races and actively seeks to promote racial integration by recruiting and enrolling a larger number of students. — An Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer PIRATES/145 44VLS DILATHLV ATHLETIC STAFF *. a! DR. KEN KARR Dr. Ken Karr has been a major driving force behind East Carolina’s rise to national prominence in intercollegiate athletics. Since being named July 11, 1980 as only the fourth athletic director to serve ECU since the inception of the position on the Greenville Campus in 1947, Karr has guided the program toward greater exposure and success. He has been instrumental in upgrading the Pirate football schedule to where there are now home-and-away series with powers such as Florida State, Miami (FL) and Auburn, as well as facing Pittsburgh, Missouri, Florida, West Vir- Ginia, Illinois and Penn State. Karr also played a maior role in East Carolina's admission into the College Football Association (CFA) and Eastern College Athletic Conference (ECAC), which offers an automatic bid to the NCAA championship tournament to the winner of the conference tournament. He was named treasurer of the ECAC-South in 1983. Karr came to ECU from San Diego State, where he served as athletic director from 1969-1979 and as chairman of the Department of Athletics in 1980. While developing an excellent San Diego State athletic program, Karr also was very active on the national scene with the NCAA. In 1975, he was elected to the NCAA Division | Basketball Committee for a three-year period. His appointment to that com- mittee was renewed for another three years to run through 1982. This is the committee which determines the schools to fill all slots in the NCAA post-season basketball tournament. 3 The Holiday Bowl, a post-season football game held in San Diego, was begun in 1978, with Karr playing an instrumental role in getting the game sanctioned by the NCAA. Karr served on the Board of Directors and the Executive Committee of the Holiday Bowl in 1978 and 1979. Prior to his tenure at San Diego, Karr served as an assistant director at the University of Arizona. In 1964-67, he was an assistant football coach at Wake Forest and from 1952-54, he servedat three high schools and two colleges on the football staff.
