Winthrop is a team used to winning as they’ve won 23-23-24 games the previous 3 years. This season they were to return two starters but one was lost to an injury so a 5-9 start was explainable. They’ve now won 3 and covered 3 of 5 and the losses were to the top two teams in the Big South. High Point is #9 in both conference offense and defensive efficiency. Winthrop has won 20 of their L22 conference road games so there is always confidence playing away from home.
