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.

Griffin Warner and Big East Ben talk CBB betting for the Sunday March Madness card. March 22 “Need for Seeds” College Basketball Podcast with Griffin Warner and Big East Ben. The hosts began by analyzing Saturday's Round of 32 losses and looking ahead to Sunday's games. Griffin criticized Drake's coach, McCollum, for failing to adjust to JT Toppin's dominance against Texas Tech. Toppin shot 12-for-14, and Griffin mocked McCollum's interview awkwardness and coaching rigidity. Ben echoed the criticism, pointing out McCollum ignored UNCW's successful strategy. Both hosts agreed that Drake didn't adapt defensively, and Griffin admitted only realizing in hindsight how stagnant their scheme was. Ben joked about BYU's Dawson Baker delivering an “all-time nut shot” and mentioned that the Badgers were too slow to capitalize. He then criticized how NIL and transfers have gutted mid-majors, shifting power toward elite programs and killing underdog stories. Griffin responded by saying the tournament is now a “favorites paradise,” and even good underdogs struggled to win outright. Both were frustrated by end-of-game scenarios and failed covers, especially in games like Gonzaga's push, which involved pointless fouls and missed final shots. Griffin and Ben moved through Sunday's betting card. On UConn vs. Florida, Ben confidently picked Florida -9, foreseeing a blowout and possibly a Danny Hurley ejection. Griffin leaned UConn +9 due to line value but acknowledged Florida's strengths and UConn's inconsistency. On Baylor vs. Duke, Griffin liked Baylor's shooters and athletes but warned Duke's size could overwhelm them. Ben thought the game total (143.5) was low and envisioned Duke pulling away late. Both agreed Baylor needed to slow the game to stay close. In Illinois vs. Kentucky, Ben leaned under 170, doubting either team's consistency. Griffin took Illinois -2, citing Kentucky's softness and reliance on threes. He admitted the pick wasn't strong but viewed it as a better side. On Alabama vs. St. Mary's, Ben said Alabama would “run them off the court,” calling St. Mary's “slow as molasses.” He compared Alabama to a better version of Vanderbilt, who nearly beat St. Mary's. Griffin backed under 149 instead, saying Alabama would control pace and St. Mary's couldn't score enough. The Colorado State vs. Maryland game had Ben predicting a blowout win for Maryland due to their size and physicality. Griffin was cautious but took over 143, sensing a closer game. On Ole Miss vs. Iowa State, both liked Ole Miss +5.5. Ben even predicted a straight-up win, noting Iowa State's injuries and offensive issues. Griffin agreed, citing better health and shooting depth for Ole Miss. For New Mexico vs. Michigan State, Ben dismissed New Mexico's reliance on offensive rebounds, which wouldn't work against Michigan State's bigs. He backed Michigan State -7.5. Griffin partially disagreed, saying Marquette's Stevie Mitchell was a tougher defender than MSU's guards. Still, he acknowledged that New Mexico's lack of shooting and depth made them vulnerable and chose under 148.5. Player comments included praise for JT Toppin's efficiency, criticism of Frederick King's brief poor performance, and debates over players like David Joplin, Chase Ross, and Solo Ball. BYU's Keita and Traore were highlighted for overpowering Wisconsin inside. The hosts also joked about coaching rumors, NIL finances, and players' tournament trajectories. Ben cited his bracket ranking in the 99.9th percentile but attributed that to picking mostly favorites. Griffin reflected on how betting underdogs but picking favorites in brackets led to regret. They wrapped the show with their best bets: Ben took Alabama -5.5, while Griffin preferred the under in the same game. They offered a $25 promo code “survive to five” and teased their Sweet 16 coverage and tournament merch. Their contrasting picks reflect different philosophies—Ben trusting elite talent, Griffin seeking value against inflated lines. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

DONOVAN NEWBY. (And every other guy on the roster, too.) UNCW plays for a banner on Monday night after another classic matchup with Charleston. The most joyful exhaustion.

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.

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!

LSU's Daniel Dickinson and UNCW's Tanner Thach highlight episode 62. Their stories are unique but the tie that bonds them together is their willingness to get to work. They both share stories of adversity and triumph. Co-hosted by Daron Sutton and Dani Wexelman.

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!

We're in with a discussion of UNCW's absolute beatdown of Charleston, and quick preview of this weekend's matchup with Elon. Among the topics: - Harlan Obioha, absolute beast - UNCW's physicality was good - Chris Mack was right: Charleston is soft - Winning without a big night from Donovan Newby - Khamari's automatic offense - Siddle gets win No. 100 -- don't take this for granted - Looking ahead to Elon after a weird night in the CAA

Send us a textRising seas. Dredged rivers. Dying forests. In this episode of Shoresides, we investigate one of North Carolina's most subtle yet devastating climate threats: ghost forests. These vast expanses of standing dead trees are creeping inland, driven by rising sea levels and relentless dredging of the Cape Fear River.UNCW scientists Monica Rother and Andrea Hawks join us to explain how their research—combining tree ring data and microscopic marine organisms—paints a stark picture of environmental change. They discuss why ghost forests are spreading, how they disrupt ecosystems, and what it means for communities, flooding, and environmental justice across the region.Rother and Hawks are at the forefront of research on North Carolina's ghost forests, using innovative methods to track the impact of climate change and human activity on coastal ecosystems. Rother, a forest ecologist and tree ring scientist, analyzes tree growth patterns to understand long-term environmental changes, revealing how rising salinity levels stress and ultimately kill freshwater trees. Hawks, a micropaleontologist, studies tiny marine organisms preserved in sediment to reconstruct past sea level changes and pinpoint when saltwater intrusion began affecting these landscapes. Together, their interdisciplinary work provides a clearer picture of how dredging and rising seas accelerate the spread of ghost forests, offering crucial insights into the future of coastal resilience and community health.Learn more...1. Ghost forests are dead tree stands caused by rising salinity. These eerie landscapes form when saltwater intrusion—driven by rising sea levels, coastal erosion, and human activities like dredging—kills freshwater-dependent trees, leaving behind lifeless trunks.2. They are a visible sign of climate change. Ghost forests are one of the most striking indicators of global warming, as they mark areas where land is transitioning from forest to marsh due to sea-level rise and increasing storm surges.3. The Cape Fear River dredging accelerates ghost forest formation. In Wilmington, NC, repeated deepening of the Cape Fear River has allowed tides to push saltwater farther inland, increasing salinity in freshwater wetlands and rapidly killing off bald cypress and other trees.4. They disrupt ecosystems and increase flooding risks. The loss of forested wetlands means less natural flood protection, leading to higher flood risks for nearby communities. 5. Ghost forests are expanding along the East and Gulf Coasts. While they are particularly noticeable in North Carolina, ghost forests are appearing from the Mid-Atlantic to the Gulf Coast.Useful articles...1. Bernhardt, E.

We're coming off a big 2-0 week that saw the Seahawk offense find another gear thanks to a faster pace and dominant play in the paint! It feels like UNCW is playing its best basketball just in time to head to Charleston. In this episode, we touch on... - Picking up the tempo and spreading the floor - Harlan Obioha's mobility + passing - Bo Montgomery playing with confidence - Noah Ross on the attack and being Noah Ross - The potential Josh Corbin absence? - Ante Brzovic's dominance, Deywilk Tavarez's shooting, and CJ Fulton's steady hand - What kind of game should we expect in Charleston?

The opening weekend of CAA play got off to a disappointing start with a loss to Towson, but the Seahawks showed some progress in grinding out Saturday's win vs. Campbell. Covering all that happened through those two games, plus a quick preview of the trip north to meet Monmouth and Hofstra, where UNCW hasn't won since 2017. Among the topics covered: - Another tough loss to Towson. What happened this time? - Harlan Obioha showed what's possible for the Seahawks in the post. - Life after #ShyTime is going to take some time. - Adjusting to the physicality of conference play. - Nolan Hodge and Noah Ross had a tough Saturday, but don't expect a repeat. - Making the clutch plays to beat Campbell. - Khamari McGriff, playing through the pain and back with a vengeance. - A look around the league after watching William & Mary, Charleston,

With two months of basketball down, we welcome back Friend of the Perch Brian Mull to take a look at the CAA and how our expectations have shifted from the preseason. Aside from the general conference discussion, we specifically touched on: - Elon's excellent start (:50) - Charleston continues to be Charleston (5:00) - Towson's unexpected struggles + a bit of UNCW-Towson preview (9:50) - Hampton as a surprise team? (16:30) - Zach Spiker is doing an excellent job with Drexel (30:30) - How this UNCW team has developed over the nonconference schedule (37:50)

The lockdown defense that led to UNCW's four-game winning streak was strangely absent in Saturday's loss to Howard. The guys break down a disappointing road loss, where things went wrong, and how those last couple of possessions played out. Unfortunately, the loss overshadowed one of the most productive offensive performances you'll ever see in Khamari McGriff's 34-point outing. Also in this episode: - Quick looks at FGCU and UNC Asheville - The return of Noah Ross! - The 3-point shooting woes continue - Bo Montgomery's two-way impact - An encouraging trend with Donovan + Khamari developing

UNCW won four straight heading into the exam week, and now, they'll have a chance to rest up before closing out nonconference play. We kept it short this week, looking back at the win over Marshall, how the Seahawks' defense continues to improve, and why Greedy Williams has been so incredibly important. Be sure to check out our second episode this week, a conversation with UNCW WBB star Ali Zelaya, a grad transfer who is juggling her grad school work in marine biology with playing D1 hoops!

We're thrilled to welcome Ali Zelaya, a graduate transfer marine biologist, artist, content creator and cat mom who happens to also play basketball for UNCW! Ali is refreshingly honest about her journey from being a big-time recruit at UNC-Chapel Hill, falling out of love with basketball and truly finding herself during her time in college. Since arriving in Wilmington, she's rediscovered her passion for the game and is helping Coach Nicole Woods build a foundation for success, as UNCW has already exceeded its win totals for the past three seasons. When she's not working to help ensure the future of coral reefs, Ali is usually posting hilarious stuff on Instagram and TikTok, offering a look inside her life as a D1 athlete, dancing with her cat, or sharing entirely too much info on her pregame routine. By far, the most intelligent conversation we've ever had on the program. Check her out online: Instagram: @alizelaya3 TikTok: @alexandrazelayaaa
