  Over 2500 eclipsing binaries were identified and characterized from the
ultra-precise photometric data provided by the Kepler space telescope. Kepler
is now beginning its second mission, K2, which is proving to again provide
ultra-precise photometry for a large sample of eclipsing binary stars. In the
1951 light curves covering 12 days in the K2 engineering data-set, we have
identified and determined the ephemerides for 31 eclipsing binaries that
demonstrate the capabilities for eclipsing binary science in the upcoming
campaigns in K2. Of those, 20 are new discoveries. We describe both manual and
automated approaches to harvesting the complete set of eclipsing binaries in
the K2 data, provide identifications and details for the full set of eclipsing
binaries present in the engineering data-set, and discuss the prospects for
application of eclipsing binary searches in the K2 mission.
