DURHAM, North Carolina — The target on N.C. Central’s back got bigger Monday night.NCCU’s home win over Morgan State landed the Eagles in first place in the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference.
Last season, NCCU coach LeVelle Moton, who once played for the Eagles, talked about his alma mater being the school that all the other historically black colleges and universities love to beat. For whatever reason, everybody just wants a piece of NCCU, Moton said.
Once the hunters, the Eagles have assumed the role of the hunted, particularly now as they sit atop the MEAC.
“Every night is going to be a fight,” NCCU senior Jeremy Ingram said. “Everyone gives us their best shot, so every night we’ve got to come out with the same intensity as we did with Morgan. Whether it’s the top team or the bottom team, we’ve got to come out with the same fire.”
