Two Alumni Events held in January
  Two pregame receptions were held in conjunction with men's basketball events.

The first event, held at Mellow Mushroom in Greenville, NC, saw 30 alumni and friends gather and enjoy food and Wesleyan spirit prior to attending the game at East Carolina University (recap can be found here).

The second event, held on NCWC's campus before a riveting win against USA South rival Christopher Newport, saw a crowd of over 40 alumni and friends (game recap can be found here).


  Coach John Thompson gave a brief game description just minutes prior to the CNU v. NCWC basketball game.   
 
Thank you to everyone who attended these wonderful events!
