One week after a flat performance against Colgate, the Seahawks have won three straight behind a new commitment to defense, rebounding, and physicality.

We break down the big win over ECU, analyze the adjustments UNCW made during the Live Oak Bank Holiday Classic, and break down the breakout performances from Bo Montgomery, Harlan Obioha, and the newly-healthy Nolan Hodge.

It's been a very bad seven days, and here's what we're seeing with the Seahawks in their sudden defensive dropoff. 

Big opportunity to go turn it around at William & Mary tonight! 

A Therapy Session (Before the Turnaround)

With their backs to the wall, the Seahawks went out and got their biggest + best win of the season by gutting one out at William & Mary.

Brian Mull joins us to talk about how UNCW turned it around, toughness down the stretch, and feeding the post.

We also took a good look around the league as we head into the final week of the regular season, tournament seeding possibilities and quick discussions on Campbell and Delaware.

Stay tuned to a deeper discussion on Campbell coming up tomorrow!

Bonus Perchcast!

With a big matchup in Buies Creek on Thursday night, we talked with Trevor Everette, a college hoops writer who has covered Campbell quite a bit this season. 

A great in-depth discussion on where these Camels came from, overcoming Jasin Sinani's injury, Eric Van Der Heijden flourishing, and what to expect in the game.

Plus, we finished it off with a little look around the conference. Enjoy, and follow Trevor on Twitter at @TrevorEverette!

We've assembled a squad of CAA luminaries to talk hoops leading into the CAA Tournament, including head coach Pat Skerry of the regular-season champion Towson Tigers.

After a good 45-minute chat with Coach Skerry, we were left to discuss everything tourney-related, including UNCW's possible opponents, the dream championship matchup, and more.

Also included are Friends of the Show Jerry Beach, Jake Eichstaedt, Trevor Everette, and Brian Mull.

Stay tuned for a UNCW-focused issue before the Seahawks open the tournament on Sunday evening!

Now that we've got the schedule for Sunday, a quick look at how UNCW matches up with Hampton and how the Seahawks can avoid a repeat of the most recent meeting.

Live from DC, It's Saturday Night

Coming to you live from DC, here's a quick one looking back at the Seahawks' incredible defensive effort in the win over Hampton, and looking ahead to UNCW-Charleston, Part 3 on Monday night.

UNCW plays for a banner on Monday night after another classic matchup with Charleston. The most joyful exhaustion.

It's an *NCAA TOURNAMENT EDITION* of Perchcast!

The Seahawks got it done in DC with heart, grit, and defense. There are so many incredible moments and individual contributions to talk about from UNCW's run to its seventh CAA title.

We've enjoyed the celebration, but now it's time to go make some noise on the national stage against a GREAT Texas Tech team. The Hawks are going to have to play exceptionally well to get it done, but there is a path to victory. 

We've Got a Damn Game to Win feat. Brian Mull

We're thrilled to talk with former Seahawk guard Jaylen Fornes about his journey in life and hoops, including two different stints at UNCW that saw his teams hang banners in Trask Coliseum.

Fornes, who also played pro ball in Denmark, played for three different coaches in Wilmington, with each at a distinct stage of building their program. He shares his perspective on getting to know Coach Takayo Siddle as a young assistant then reconnecting with him as a head coach as he looked to build a winning foundation.

Since returning home, Fornes has been working to build his clothing brand, Stack Your Days (www.stackyourdays.net) and working with young basketball players to make their dreams come true, just as he did as a young man from humble beginnings in Pamlico County.

Jaylen is an instant Perchcast legend and someone you'll see coaching very soon.

The man needs no introduction.

Sometimes smart, sometimes silly —  always Seahawks.

Perchcast is a weekly show focused on the people and stories of UNCW athletics with a strong emphasis toward men's basketball. We aim to go deeper than the headlines and tweets, and use interviews, analytics and occasionally the eye-test to connect fans with the Seahawks.
