#200: Udon Cheek-East Carolina University

The Gill Athletics Track and Field Connections Podcast

We celebrate our 200th episode with a very special guest, the assistant coach of the East Carolina Pirates Udon Cheek. We explore his journey from walk on athlete at ECU to assistant Pirate coach, the impact the head coaches had on his life and coaching style, as well as the influence music has had on his career and life. Udon talks about his pursuit of a career in rap music, how that has affected his coaching, and what he does today within this music genre. We're also proud to announce Udon is the creator of the new intro song we use on the Gill Connections podcast ever since the start of Season 4 back in January. And because Udon is so talented and such a giver, at the end of today's episode we present the World Premier of Udon's latest single 'Don't Give Up'. You're going to enjoy this amazingly talented person's art as much as the Pirate athletes enjoy his coaching.
