Jeff Charles, the radio voice of East Carolina University’s sports teams tragically died last night while covering the team’s basketball match at Tulane.

Charles had spent 30-years as the ECU Pirates announcer.

North Carolina broadcasters say Charles suffered a ‘medical incident’.

Charles was treated by ECU trainers and later EMS personnel, but sadly could not be resuscitated.

Today’s 1pm game at the Fogelman Arena at the Devlin Fieldhouse with ECU has been postponed and the team has returned to Greenville.  Charles was 70.
