The Green Wave (10-9, 2-5) closed within 11 points at 46-35 with 13:31 remaining.

“Our defense the first half was good,” said ECU coach Joe Dooley. “The guys were engaged. It also allowed us to get out in transition.”

The Pirates made 26 of 50 field goal attempts for 52 percent, including 10 of 19 on 3-point tries (52.6 percent). ECU was 19 of 27 at the line (70.4 percent).

“When you make shots, it makes everything better,” Dooley said.

The Pirates had a 42-30 rebounding advantage.

“Everybody was locked-in during warm-ups,” Gardner said. “There wasn’t too much chit-chat or laughter. Everybody was focused and knew it was a must win.”

Miles had a career high.

“My teammates found me and I was in a good rhythm,” Miles said.

Bitumba Baruti added nine points and Tremont Robinson-White scored six.
