NOTES FROM ECU AND BEYOND...
Previous Day Nuggets...
Next Day Nuggets...
Compiled from staff reports
and electronic dispatches
Mazey, ECU put divorce settlement in writing
East Carolina University and its former
head baseball coach are officially parting ways. Randy Mazey, the coach of
the Pirates for the past three seasons, has resigned and will leave the
university on Dec. 31, the school said in a Thursday afternoon press
release.
Billy Godwin
was named to succeed Mazey on Oct. 28, less
than three weeks after stepping in on an interim basis following Mazey's
suspension by athletic director Terry Holland. The
Oct. 10th suspension came after a period of
defections and unrest within the program apparently came to a head.
Under Mazey, the Pirates extended their
string of NCAA postseason berths to seven straight seasons but experienced
divisions within the ranks.
"I enjoyed and will always appreciate
the opportunity to serve our university; however, I believe this resignation
is in our respective best interests," Mazey said in a letter to Holland that
was quoted in ECU's annoucement.
In July 2004, the ECU Board of Trustees
agreed to raise Mazey's salary to $100,000 per year and extended his
contract through the 2008 season. Under the terms of a separation agreement
noted in the release, Mazey will continue to receive a salary at $100,000
rate through the end of this month. Starting Jan. 1, 2006, he will be
compensated at half that annual rate, with no benefits, until the contract
expires on June 30, 2008.
Mazey succeeded
ECU Hall of Famer Keith LeClair after the
2002 season. LeClair, who was forced to step down for health reasons, had
publicly declared the program's number one objective to be reaching the
College World Series, a goal that has been enthusiastically embraced by the
East Carolina community.
"We wish Coach Mazey well," Holland
stated in the release. "The focus of the baseball program is now exclusively
back on our goal of getting to Omaha."
Rosenblatt Stadium in Omaha, NE, is
where the College World Series is staged each year.
