ECU has annual Purple versus Gold Spring Football Game
GREENVILLE, N.C. (WNCT) — ECU had its annual Purple versus Gold Spring Football Game Saturday, Apr. 26, 2025 inside Dowdy-Ficklen Stadium.
Both teams had scoring touchdown runs as London Montgomery scored for purple on a 71-yard score and T.J. Engelman for a 49-yard scamper.
Team Purple came away with the 17-10 victory after Cole Hodge threw a touchdown pass to Ty Johnson and Tymir Brown snagged an interception to seal the win.
'You know, they're out here, Spring practice, we drew out for five weeks, longer than normal,' ECU Head Football Coach Blake Harrell said. 'The energy they still had to go out here and compete and the love they have for each and care about each other and want to put the ball down and go after it, that's pretty special at this point.'
