Seth Coy honored by East Tennessee State JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. — On a homecoming day full of emotion, the East Tennessee State’s men’s basketball team made the plays it needed to make in the final minutes to outlast rival Appalachian State 62-58 in the 2009-10 season opener Saturday afternoon inside Memorial Center. In a game that began with a memorial service for former ETSU center, Washington’s Seth Coy, who tragically died in a car accident last summer, the Buccaneers were the recipients of a fortuitous intentional foul call with a minute left in regulation and capitalized at the foul line with five makes in six tries to pick up the victory. A crowd of 5,562 fans looked on as sophomore guard Adam Sollazzo — who roomed with Coy and now wears his No. 43 jersey — hit two of those free tosses with 16.2 seconds left to help ice the game.
