For those of us who attended State in the late 60s and early 70s and followed Wolfpack basketball, you may have gotten to know one of the managers, Eddie Wright. Eddie, who hailed from Tabor City and spent his adult life as a firefighter and EMT in Pompano Beach, FL, passed away at the young age of 65 on June 14. His obit can be found here, http://tabor-loris.com/v2/content.aspx?ID=96516&MemberID=2180. Eddie lived and breathed Wolfpack anything, but none more that basketball.
RIP Eddie, one of the best Wolfpackers ever, bled red through and through.
