Stories.

On September 11, ECU football stories brought coaches, teammates and fans together at The State Theatre—and helped turn a night of connection into real hope for ALS families.

One night. Stories that matter.

A great football story.
A life-changing purpose.

Hosted by Matt Stillwell and Mike “Mully” Mullis, the evening celebrated the stories behind Chris Johnson's remarkable career. BEAT ALS and the Permobil Foundation presented a power wheelchair to Raphael Hebert and his family, bringing the mission to life in front of the community that helped make the night possible.
