Minges Coliseum

Minges Coliseum was originally known as the ECC Field House. It was designed by F. Carter Williams. The construction was completed in 1966 to elevate East Carolina’s growing athletic presence. It was named in honor of the M.O. Minges family, longtime local supporters and owners of the Pepsi-Cola Bottling Co. (Building Histories, 2025)
