Match Info
East Carolina notched an impressive 84-68 win over the University of Memphis in an NCAA basketball American Athletic Conference game on March 1, 2026. The Pirates used a huge second-half surge to turn a close game into a convincing victory against a traditional league power. Memphis started strong, leveraging its athleticism to take an early lead. East Carolina settled in and managed to tie the game by halftime. The second half belonged entirely to the Pirates, who erupted on a 20-5 run fueled by hot three-point shooting and aggressive defense that forced Memphis into mistakes. The Tigers' offense went cold for a long stretch, and East Carolina capitalized, building a lead that Memphis could never seriously challenge. This result served as a major upset and a signature win for East Carolina's season, potentially damaging Memphis's hopes for an at-large NCAA tournament bid. The East Carolina coach called it a program-defining win, while the Memphis coach criticized his team's lack of effort and focus after halftime.
