East Carolina fell behind to North Carolina Wesleyan 11-0 in the opening 3:37 but scrapped back from the dismal start and eventually pulled away from the Division III Battling Bishops 88-69 Tuesday night in Greenville.

Sophomore forward John Fields scored 12 points to lead four ECU players in double figures. Senior guard Cory Farmer and freshman guard Brock Young each each added 11 points and senior guard Darrell Jenkins contributed 10.

Senior guard Larry Hall scored a game-high 19 points and had 4 steals to pace Wesleyan, which also got double-figure support from sophomore guard Jarmel Arrington (12 points), junior forward Buddy Williams (10 points) and sophomore guard Trey Drake (10 points and a game-high 11 rebounds).

The Battling Bishops (1-2) clung to a 38-37 halftime lead.
