Williams Arena at Minges Coliseum, Basketball arena at East Carolina University in Greenville, United States.
Williams Arena at Minges Coliseum is a multipurpose venue at East Carolina University designed to accommodate approximately 8,000 spectators. The facility features modern video displays, scoreboards, and courtside seating areas positioned for clear views of events.
The arena opened on January 27, 1968, and underwent major renovations prior to the 1994-95 season to modernize its facilities. These upgrades allowed the venue to meet the evolving needs of contemporary sporting events.
The venue serves as home to East Carolina University Pirates basketball teams and hosts volleyball matches, graduation ceremonies, and concerts that shape campus life. These events draw students, families, and local residents who gather to celebrate athletic achievements and university traditions.
The venue is located at 200 Ficklen Drive in Greenville, North Carolina, and connects to the Murphy Center through an indoor walkway for convenient access. This covered passage is especially helpful when weather conditions are unfavorable.
The venue reached its highest attendance with more than 8,000 spectators during a men's basketball game against Marquette in late 2002. This record underscores the arena's role in hosting major sporting competitions in the region.
