UNC Wilmington aids stranded woman en route to the airport

"Coach [Kevin] Keats asked several of the guys to get out of the bus to help her," UNC Wilmington associate athletic director for communications Joe Browning said. "They pushed her on her way and we trudged along to the airport. We were very fortunate to get out of Baltimore since the area was hit with several inches. We had 10 assists in the game, but this may have been the biggest one of the night."

Any good karma UNC Wilmington receives is well-deserved for a team that is already one of the nation's most pleasant surprises this season.

Once the CAA's signature program, the Seahawks endured averaged 21.5 losses per season the past six years under fired coaches Benny Moss and Buzz Peterson. Keats, a former Louisville assistant under Rick Pitino, has turned things around in startlingly quick fashion in his first season, taking many holdovers from last year's 23-loss team and leading them to a 16-11 overall record and an 11-5 mark in the CAA.

So cool to see us getting so much positive national press for a multitude of reasons.
