Bio

Mark Carr (82) played basketball at ENC from 1978-1982, scoring 2,539 career points and helping ENC to 78 wins in his four seasons. He is ranked second in school history for career points. The team made playoff appearances every year either in NAIA or NCCAA, making it to the national NCCAA tournament in Tennessee during his freshman and senior years. He retired as a U.S. Postal Inspector in 2012 and now works as a Federal Government Contract Background Investigator. He was raised in Rockville, Maryland and was the only one of eight children to graduate from college.  

He earned various basketball awards as a player. Among them are NCCAA First Team All-American as a senior (1981-82), D-3 All-New England as well as NCCAA All District Team as a junior and the Seaboard Athletic Conference All Conference Team as a senior. He spent several weeks as Athletic Conference Basketball Player of the Week and received several ENC All-Star Honor Roll selections.

He married his college sweetheart and former ENC cheerleader, Frannie Bradley, and they have celebrated 31 years of marriage. They have two sons – Ryan, who is a special education teacher, and Kevin, who plays basketball for the Washington Generals/Harlem Globetrotter organization. Mark was a U.S. Postal Inspector for 23 years in the Baltimore –Washington Field Office. As a Postal Inspector he received numerous awards and recognition for his investigative work involving employee misconduct, workplace violence, illegal drugs being sent through the mail, and bank and identity fraud investigations. Most significantly he spent four years on the largest federal investigation in American history, the Anthrax investigation. He also received the 2011 Federal Law Enforcement Officers Association (FLEOA) National Investigative Award.

He is thankful for having 24/7 access to the ENC gym as a student and for daily pick-up games with teammates as well as professors, students and many local town kids. He loved the school spirit and camaraderie of the student body and the chance to participate in King’s Tournament.
