After a pair of third-place finishes at the Carolina Cup last weekend, the East Carolina track and field squad is back in action this weekend when the Pirates take part in the Hokie Invitational hosted by Virginia Tech.

ECU came away with three first-place finishes over the weekend as junior Avion Jones won the men's high jump and seniors Joe Wilson and Tyshonda Hawkins took first in the men's and women's 60-meter dash, respectively.

After taking a one-month hiatus for finals and winter break, the East Carolina track and field team will resume its indoor season Friday, January 16, at the Dick Taylor Carolina Cup hosted by the University of North Carolina.
